A piece of semiconductors is connected in sereis in an electric circuit. On increasing the temperautre, the current in the circuit will

A

decreased

B

unchanged

C

increased

D

stop flowing

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Because with rise in temperature , resistance of semiconductor decreases, hence overall resistance of the circuit decreases, which in turn increases the current in the circuit.
