Accepted Answer

The time constant will decrease by a factor of 3./Dit sal verlaag met ’n faktor van 3.

Answer

It will not change since the resistance stayed the same./Dit sal nie verander nie aangesien die weerstand nie verander het nie.

Answer

The time constant will decrease by a factor of 9./Dit sal verlaag met ’n faktor van 9.

Answer

The time constant will increase by a factor of 9./Dit sal vergroot met ’n faktor van 9.

Answer

The time constant will increase by factor of 3./Dit sal vergroot met ’n faktor van 3.
