Resistor RI and the 40 resistor are now swapped. How does the current through the battery change, and why? (A) The current does not change, because the resistance does not change. (B) The current increases, because the total resistance will always decrease. (© The current decreases, because the total resistance will always increase. (1B) The change in the current cannot be determined without knowing the resistance of R, and R,, R, Ry Which of the following equations correctly represent the total potential difference for a complete loop in the circuit diagram above?
