Explain what happens?

You know those questions that ask what happens to Vout when the resistance increase/decrease? I tend to always answer:
Resistance increase would cause decrease in current thus a decrease in Vout. So the trigger such as light intensity or temperature must decrease in order to maintain the same Vout.
Is that sufficient?

Just worth remembering V1/V2=R1/R2. Therefore an increase in the resistance of R1 results in an increase of the votlage (V1) across it. Dont really know what question you're refering to though

I usually just say that to keep a constant voltage ratio an equivalent resistance ratio must be satisfied. Or vice versa. And then, of course, expand on it a little and apply it to the question.
