Increase
Decrease
Its stays the same
Not eneough information
- 7. Multiple Choice
In a circuit, the total resistance is greater than the largest resistance in the circuit.
Series
Parallel
Either series or parallel
A. Neither series nor parallel
- 8. Multiple Choice
Are the resistors shown connected in parallel or in series?
The resistors are connected in parallel because the same current flows through all three resistors.
The resistors are connected in parallel because different current flows through all three resistors.
The resistors are connected in series because the same current flows through all three resistors.
The resistors are connected in series because different current flows through all three resistors.
- 9. Multiple Choice
Which of the following is a correct verbal expression for Ohm’s law
Ohm’s law says that the current through a resistor equals the voltage across the resistor multiplied by the resistance of the resistor.
Ohm’s law says that the voltage across a resistor equals the current through the resistor multiplied by the resistance of the resistor.
Ohm’s law says that the resistance of the resistor equals the current through the resistor multiplied by the voltage across a resistor.
Ohm’s law says that the voltage across a resistor equals the square of the current through the resistor multiplied by the resistance of the resistor.
- 10. Multiple Choice
Two identical resistors are connected in parallel across the terminals of a battery. If you increase the resistance of one of the resistors, what happens to the current through and the voltage across the other resistor?
The current and the voltage remain the same.
The current decreases and the voltage remains the same.
The current and the voltage increases.
The current increases and the voltage remains the same.
