Answer:
I = 0.09[amp] or 90 [milliamps]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use ohm's law, which tells us that the voltage is equal to the product of the voltage by the current.
V = I*R
where:
V = voltage [V]
I = current [amp]
R = resistance [ohm]
Now, we replace the values of the first current into the equation
V = 180*10^-3 * R
V = 0.18*R (1)
Then we have that the resistance is doubled so we have this new equation:
V = I*(2R) (2)
The voltage remains constant therefore 1 and 2 are equals and we can obtain the current value.
V = V
0.18*R = I*2*R
I = 0.09[amp] or 90 [milliamps]
