- It will become four times.
- It will become one-fourth.
- It will become half.

उत्तर
(c) It will become one-fourth.
According to Ohm’s law, the product of current and resistance should remain constant if the potential applied is the same. Hence, if resistance is made four times, then current should be one-fourth.
