Ohm's Law

Question 10 • *CHS TN-Physical Science

Which statement describes the relationship of voltage and current?

Answer
A
Voltage is directly proportional to current because I = .
B
Voltage is inversely proportional to current because I = .
C
Voltage is directly proportional to current because I = VR.
D
Voltage is inversely proportional to current because I = VR.

Explanation

Ohm’s law is I = V/R, where R is resistance. If resistance stays constant, increasing voltage increases current in the same proportion, so voltage and current are directly proportional. The matching statement is “Voltage is directly proportional to current.”
