Question 20
H

A thermistor is connected in series with a fixed resistor and a battery. The temperature of the thermistor increases. What happens to the potential difference across the fixed resistor?

[1]
A

It increases, because the current in the circuit increases

B

It increases, because the resistance of the thermistor increases

C

It decreases, because the current in the circuit decreases

D

It decreases, because the resistance of the thermistor decreases
