  1. Question 1

    Q1. A circuit contains a battery, a resistor, and a switch. What happens when the switch is closed?

    • A) The current increases due to the applied voltage
    • B) The current decreases due to the high resistance
    • C) The current remains the same due to the battery's voltage
    • D) The current is zero due to the absence of voltage

    Answer: The current increases due to the applied voltage

    Explanation: Closing the switch allows the current to flow, increasing due to the applied voltage.
