The resistance is decreasing
Closing a switch in an electrical circuit will complete the circuit. The supply voltage will then be applied to that circuit, and current will flow through that circuit.
Current can't pass through an open circuit .
A single route for electrical current is called a branch circuit.
When you have multiple loads in a series, the resistance of the loads is added together allowing very little current to flow through the circuit to power any of the loads, making for a low amperage circuit. If you have your loads in parellel, the resistance of the loads in the circuit is subtracted which allows more current to flow, making for a high amperage circuit.
Electron flow is known as 'current' the unit of current is an amp
Current will increase
In a passive circuit, the current will decrease. In an active industrial circuit, it will usually decrease. In a theoretic manner - it is an unknown.
the current will increase because of a lower level of resistance , hence more current will flow- easily
Current increases if the voltage remains constant.
The physical equation governing voltage is V = IR, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance. If V remains constant while R is increased, I or current must decrease. Increasing the resistance in a circuit is simply introducing a material that further resists or impedes the electron flow (current), thus current decreases.
Power is voltage times current. If power and voltage remains the same, then current cannot decrease - it must also remain the same.The only viable explanation, assuming the question is valid, is that there is a parallel circuit, and one resistance increases while the other decreases, keeping the net resistance the same, but shifting the power from one branch to the other.Another answerNormally, if the voltage remains the same and the current decreases in a particular circuit, then the resistance of that circuit must be increasing and the total energy input must also reduce.If the total energy input remains constant (and yet the voltage remains the same) then some of the current being supplied by the source - and therefore also some of the energy - must be going to some other place outside the circuit in question, e.g. there could now be a ground fault...
If you are referring to a simple circuit, you could add resistance throughout it. Increased resistance means decreased current flow yet the same voltage.
Increases the total resistance
Depends on the device. If it is a resistor and you have a fixed voltage then the circuit will obey Ohms law. Voltage = Current x Resistance. So if R increases by adding more resistors in series and the voltage is constant, the current will decrease.
The total current decreases.According to the Ohm's law the current & the resistance are inversely proportional so when we put a load in series with the existing load, the resistance of the circuit increases therefor the current decreases.
Ohm's Law answers your question. Voltage = Current x Resistance. In a series circuit you are in effect adding resistance. If the Voltage remains constant then the answer is obvious looking at the equation above.
