Question

How will the current change in a series circuit if more resistors are added to it?

Answer 1

In a series circuit, the current through each of the components is the same, and the voltage across the circuit is the sum of the voltages across each component. In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents through each component.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

Answer 2

Answer;

The current decreases.

Explanation;

• From the Ohm's law, current through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference at constant temperature and pressure.
• Mathematically; I =V/R, where R is the resistance, I is the current and V is the voltage or the potential difference.
• Current is inversely proportional to the resistance, thus and increase in resistance decreases the amount of current in a circuit and vice versa.
• In a series circuit, as more and more resistors are added, the effective or equivalent resistance of the circuit increases and the total current of the circuit decreases.
