Question 24
H

A resistor is connected to a battery. A second resistor of the same resistance is then added in series. What happens to the current in the battery?

[1]
A

It halves, because the total resistance of the circuit doubles

B

It halves, because the potential difference of the battery halves

C

It doubles, because the total resistance of the circuit halves

D

It is unchanged, because the battery has not been changed
