A student builds a simple circuit with a single resistor of resistance R and measures an electric potential difference of Δ V 1 across the resistor. Then, the student replaces the resistor with a new one of resistance 2 R and keeps the current the same. How does the electric potential difference Δ V 2 across the new resistor compare with Δ V 1 ?
