Question

For a basic circuit connected to a 12 V battery, if the current increases what must
have happened to the resistance?

Expert Solution

Step 1

According to ohm's law

the magnitude of direct current is proportional to potential difference across a conductor

i.e V is proportional to i

V=iR

where R is proportionality constant

and its value is constant at a given temperature and same physical conditions. its also prime assumption of ohms law.

Your teacher decides to replace a 60-W incandescent lightbulb in her kitchen with a 9-W LED bulb. The voltage is unchanged in the circuit. Which of the following statements correctly describes the results of her decision? (Remember V=IR and P=IV) The lower power rating results in a decrease in the current and an increase in the resistance. The lower power rating results in a rise in the current and a rise in the resistance. The lower power rating results in a rise in the current and a decrease in the resistance. The lower power rating results in a decrease in the current and a decrease in the resistance.
