a circuit is a path along which electric current flows how would changing the battery in a circuit from 9 volts to 1.5 volts most likely affect the circuit

Answer: Reducing the voltage in circuit will affect the flow of current.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Ohm's Law: The electric current in closed circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied to the circuit, where resistance offered by the electric circuit remains constant.


Current\propto Voltage

So, when we reduce the voltage in circuit from 9 volts from 1.5 volts the flow of the current will also get reduced in a circuit.

Hence ,reducing the voltage in circuit will affect the flow of current.

The question in this item is about the effect of changing the voltage of the battery in the circuit from 9 volts to 1.5 volts to the electric current. From the Ohm's law, V = IR, V and I are directly proportional. This means that the electri current is also decreased with the decrease in voltage in the circuit.
