$$\text { Figure } 6 ' 3$$ -If a 10 $\mathrm { k } \Omega$ resistor is placed in parallel with R₄ in Figure 6-3, how will V_R4 change? A) V_R4 will remain the same. B) V_R4 will decrease. C) V_V4 will increase. D) V_R4 will change to 4 volts.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Adding a resistor in parallel decreases the total resistance of the circuit, leading to an increase in current flow. This results in a decrease in voltage across R₄, causing a decrease in V_R4.
