Question 7 • Physical Science

A circuit has a current of 1 point 2 A If the voltage decreases to one-third of its original amount while the resistance remains constant, what will be the resulting current?

Answer
A
1 point 2 A
B
3 point 6 A
C
0 point 3 A
D
0 point 4 A

Explanation

By Ohm’s law, current is directly proportional to voltage when resistance stays constant. If the voltage falls to one-third of its original value, the current also falls to one-third: 1.2 A ÷ 3 = 0.4 A. The resulting current is 0.4 A, choice A.
