It increases.
It decreases.
It remains the same.
It becomes zero.
Show Solution
Copy
In a series circuit, removing a resistor decreases the total resistance because the total resistance is the sum of all resistances.

Q
Q: In a series circuit, if one resistor is removed, what happens to the total resistance?
Solution:
In a series circuit, removing a resistor decreases the total resistance because the total resistance is the sum of all resistances.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what a series circuit is. In a series circuit, all components are connected one after the other in a single path.
Step 2: Know that in a series circuit, the total resistance is calculated by adding up the resistance values of all the resistors.
Step 3: If you remove one resistor from the series circuit, you are taking away one of the resistances that contribute to the total.
Step 4: Since the total resistance is the sum of all resistances, removing a resistor means there are fewer resistances to add together.
Step 5: Therefore, the total resistance decreases when you remove a resistor from a series circuit.
