If a resistance is halved in value and the potential difference across it is tripled, then the ratio of the new current to the old one is
A
1 : 6
B
1 : 3
C
2 : 1
D
6 : 1
correct option: d

(\frac{V_1}{V_2}) = (\frac{I_1R_1}{I_2R_2})

(\frac{I_1}{I_2})V2 = 3V1 and R1 = 2R2

(\frac{V_1}{3V_1}) = (\frac{I_1 \times\ 2R_2}{I_2\times R_2})

(\frac{I_1}{I_2}) = (\frac{6}{1})
