Resistance oppose the flow of current if one opposition resistance is remove so obviously current increase.

Hello friends,
In series circuit current remains the same. Even you have high resistance or low resistance because current is constant in series connection.

i1 = 1/3r.
i2 = 1/2r.
i2 = 3/2(i1).
So current increases by 1.5 not by 1/3.
i2 = 1/2r.
i2 = 3/2(i1).
So current increases by 1.5 not by 1/3.

As the 3 resistances are connected in series the total resistance is the sum of the 3 resistances. As one of the resistance is removed the total resistance will be lesser than this. Since the current is i=v/r the current will be greater than the original current.

Why not current increases by one third?

By the ohms low wn khow that:
V=IR.
Then,
Current (I) =V/R.
Resistance (R) =V/I.
By the above explanation we can easily see that the resistance is inversely proportional to the current. So when the no.of resistance decrease the current will increase.
V=IR.
Then,
Current (I) =V/R.
Resistance (R) =V/I.
By the above explanation we can easily see that the resistance is inversely proportional to the current. So when the no.of resistance decrease the current will increase.

V=IR.
R=V/I.
So resistor and current inversely proportional. So resistor value decreases means the current value is to be increased.
R=V/I.
So resistor and current inversely proportional. So resistor value decreases means the current value is to be increased.

AS PER OHMS LAW... I=V/R..

When resistance decreases,the current increases.Because R=V/I, resistance and current are inversely proportional.
