Increasing the resistance of a variable resistor wired in series with a light bulb will not affect the voltage drop on the bulb [FALSE].
A series circuit is a type of circuit arrangement, where the same current flows in each resistor of the circuit. Also Different voltage flow in each resistor of the circuit.
The total voltage drop in a series circuit is given as;
V = IR₁ + IR₂ + IR₃ + ----
V = I(R₁ + R₂ + R₃)
From the above equation, increase in the number of resistance, increases the voltage drop.
Thus, increasing the resistance of a variable resistor wired in series with a light bulb will not affect the voltage drop on the bulb [FALSE].
