Let the resistance of an electrical component remain constant while the potential difference across the two ends of the component decreases to half of its former value. What change will occur in the current through it?

Question

Let the resistance of an electrical component remain constant while the potential difference across the two ends of the component decreases to half of its former value. What change will occur in the current through it?

Accepted Answer

Answer :

According to ohm’s law we have V is directly proportion to I.
So when potential difference between two ends of the component is halved, the current through the component also decreases to half of its initial value.
