Question

$$\text { Figure } 10 < 1$$
-If the resistor changes to  2.2  $\mathrm { k } \Omega$ in Figure 10-1, how does the total current change?
A) It decreases. 
B) It remains the same. 
C) It decreases to zero. 
D) It increases.

According to Ohm's Law, as resistance increases, current decreases. Therefore, if the resistor changes to a higher resistance of 2.2kΩ, the total current in the circuit will decrease.
