Question

In the circuit seen here, the resistor has a resistance of 3 ohms. If no change in the battery size occurs, what will happen to the current if the resistance increases to 6 ohms?
A) It will increase by a factor of 2.

B) It will decrease by a factor of 2.

C) It will increase by a factor of 6.

D) It will decrease by a factor of 3.

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Explanation:

using ohm's law: v=IR

so I=v/R

resistance becomes double so current is halved

Answer 2

It will increase by a factor of 2
