  • Inverse Relationship Between Current and Resistance: Problem & Solution
    Given:

    Current (I) = 2 amperes

    Resistance (R) = 960 ohms

    To Find:

    Current (I) when the resistance (R) is unknown.

    Formula:

    I = k/R

    where,

    k is a constant.

    Finding the constant (k):

    Substitute the given values in the formula:

    2 = k/960

    k = 2 * 960

    k = 1920

    Determining the current for the unknown resistance:

    Substitute the value of k in the formula:

    I = 1920/R

    Therefore, the current (I) is directly proportional to the reciprocal of resistance (R).
