I have a really basic question. Ive read about parallel resistors lots of times but its still not clear. I know that in a parallel circuit that the voltage is the same between every parallel passage but what I was wondering is if it remains the same as the voltage of the power source or is the power sources voltage divided evenly among them?
For example

Lets say the power source of this circuit has an EMF of 10 volts. Would that mean theres 10 volts across R1, R2, and R3 or would the voltage be divided and there be 3 volts between R1, R2 and R3?
