Which of the following is correct in a parallel circuit with an open branch in one of its 3 branches. The total resistance decreases. The total resistance increases. The total current decreases. The voltage in the remaining branches is still equal to the source voltage. Which of the following is incorrect? The total resistance of a parallel circuit is always higher than its lowest branch resistance. The total resistance of a parallel circuit is inversely proportional to the total current. The total resistance of a parallel circuit is always lower than its lowest branch resistance. The total resistance of a parallel circuit is directly proportional to the total current.
