Parallel Circuits - Engineering

Q1:

If one of the resistors in a parallel circuit is removed, the total resistance

A decreases

B increases

C remains the same

D doubles

ANS:B - increases

When a resistance is removed from a parallel circuit, the total resistance is increased because for parallel total resistance is less than the minimum resistance and when one resistance is removed the total effective resistance increases.
