In the given figure, the effective resistance in both the parallel wires are equal

(b o t h = 5Ω)

. Hence, the current divided in both the wires will be equal i.e.,

2 A

will get divided in both the wires equally.
Now, by applying Ohm's law

(V = i R)

,

V_{x} = (1 A) \times (2Ω) = 2 v o lt s

V_{y} = (1 A) \times (3Ω) = 3 v o lt s

\Rightarrow V_{y} -V_{x} =3-2=1V
