When working out internal resistance, you increase the resistance of the variable resistor and this increases voltage as the share between it and the internal resistane is higher. Apparently "The current decreases becuase the resistance is higher", i really dont get this bit because i=v/r and since v is higher and r lower shouldnt I be the same.
Also coming to potential dividers, when you increase the resistance of a component why does its voltage increase, i understand the reason is because current is constant and therefore the coltage sher must change but then doent that contradict the previous concept of what an increase in resistance does.
Can someone help please because right now physics is one big mess when it comes to this.
