A voltage is applied to a resistor,
which creates a 1.50 A current. If
you double the resistance, keeping
the voltage the same, what will the
new current be?
(Unit = A)


Answer :

Answer:

Explanation:

By Ohms Law, Voltage = Current * Resistance

Keeping the voltage the same and doubling the resistance, the current will be halved.

So the new current = 1.5/2 = 0.75A

By using Ohms law,  the current will be 0.75A.

What is Ohm's law?

Ohm's law states that the current flowing through a resistance is proportional to potential difference across the resistance under constant temperature and pressure conditions. Ohm's law can be expressed as:

V =IR

Here, I = 1.50 AR = R Ωso, V = 1.50 R Now Voltage is same but resistance is doubled so new resistance is

Now, put the values of given data in ohms law formula:

2RI = 1.50 R/ 2R = 0.75A

Hence current is 0.75A
