Question

Help is greatly appreciated.

Consider the circuit shown in the figure below, in which V = 1.5 V and R = 5 ohm. Find and tabulate the current through and the potential difference across each resistor. In the previous question, what would happen if you were to reduce the resistance of the resistor labeled R? (Select all that apply.) The battery's voltage would decrease The battery would put out more current The voltage drop across the 48 Ohm resistor would increase The battery would put out less current The battery's voltage would increase The voltage drop across the 16 Ohm resistor would decrease There would be more current through the 3 Ohm resistor The current through the 48 Ohm resistor would decrease

Explanation / Answer

If resistance of 5ohm is removed from the circuit then

battery would put out less current

Resistance(R) Current(I) Potential difference(V) 3 0.5 1.5 5 0.3 1.5 48 0.031 1.5 16 0.093 1.5
