If four parallel 10 kΩ resistors are connected in series with a single 20 kΩ resistor and one of the parallel resistors opens, how does the voltage across the other parallel resistors change?
A)It remains the same.
B)It decreases.
C)It increases.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When one of the parallel resistors opens, the total resistance of the parallel combination increases, leading to an increase in the voltage across the remaining parallel resistors.
