Question

Figure $8 < 2$ -If R₁ shorts in Figure 8-2, V_R2__________ A) decreases B) remains the same C) increases

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When R₁ shorts, it effectively reduces the resistance in the circuit. According to Ohm's Law (V=IR), if resistance decreases while the current remains constant or increases, the voltage across the remaining components in the circuit (in this case, across V_R2) would increase.
