If a 10Ω resistor is removed and replaced by a 20Ω resistor, at constant voltage, the current will decrease.

Ohms law

This law states that, the current flowing in a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage in the conductor.

V = IR

where;

  • V is the voltage of the conductot
  • I is the current
  • R is the resistance

I = V/R

At constant voltage, when the value of the resistance increases, the value of the current in the ciircuit wil decrease.

Thus, if a 10Ω resistor is removed and replaced by a 20Ω resistor, at constant voltage, the current will decrease.
