How does increasing the number of resistors in a parallel branch change the total resistance of the system?
- Decreases the total resistance of the circuit
- Increases the total resistance of the circuit
- Increases the total resistance of the circuit if the resistance of the added resistor is larger than the resistors already in the branch
- Decreases the total resistance of the circuit if the resistance of the added resistor is smaller than the resistors already in the branch
