Referring to figure "B" of the illustration, what statement is true? Illustration EL-0020
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A. The current drawn by the circuit will be inversely proportional to the total resistance of the entire circuit.
This is correct because, according to Ohm's law, the current in a circuit is inversely proportional to the total resistance of the circuit. As the total resistance increases, the current will decrease, and vice versa.
The other options are incorrect because B and D are not always true, as the current through each resistor can be different depending on the resistance values, and C is the opposite of the correct relationship between current and total resistance.
