To find the potential difference (V) across a resistor, you can use Ohm's Law, which states that V = I * R, where I is the current and R is the resistance.
In this case, the 10 ohm resistor has a current of 2 A passing through it. Therefore, the potential difference across the 10 ohm resistor is V = 2 A * 10 ohms = 20 V.
Since the 5 ohm resistor is connected in series with the 10 ohm resistor, the potential difference across both resistors will be the same. Thus, the potential difference across the 5 ohm resistor is also 20 V.
Therefore, the correct answer is b) 20 V.
