Ohm’s law is represented by the equation I = V/R. Explain how the current would change if the amount of resistance decreased and the voltage stayed the same.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The current is proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance. This mean if the resistance decreased and the voltage stayed constant, the current will increase.

Explanation:

Let's star with a closed circuit with a constant voltage of 48V, and a variable resistor selector of 6, 4 and 2 Ohms.

Using Ohm's Law equation [tex]I=\frac{V}{R}[/tex]

With the variable resistor selector on 6 Ohms

[tex]I=\frac{48V}{6ohms} =8A[/tex]

Changing the selector to a 4 Ohms

[tex]I=\frac{48V}{4ohms} = 12A[/tex]

Last, changing the selector to a 2 Ohms

[tex]I=\frac{48V}{2ohms} =24A[/tex]
