Do u remember the option. Was it A or D
Sadly no, but I am certain it was decrease decrease, because the internal resistance increased so the overall resistance of the circuit increased. V=IR tells us that if resistance increases, current decreases since the V is constant. As for terminal pd, it is the pd that will be used up by the external resistor. Since the internal resistance increases, it uses up more pd meaning a decrease in pd for the external resistor(which is terminal pd).

What about the waves question. What is common for red and green light.. and which of the following increases when the star is going away
I think this was the question

Frequency is different(they were asking for what is different) for red and green light. The wavelength increases when the star moves away(since frequency decreases).
