SOLUTION: The current in a simple electrical circuit varies inversely as the resistance. If the current is 50amps when the resistance is 10ohms, find the current if the resistance is 50hms.

Question 936228: The current in a simple electrical circuit varies inversely as the resistance. If the current is 50amps when the resistance is 10ohms, find the current if the resistance is 50hms.
Answer by srinivas.g(540) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
initial current (c1) = 50 amps
final current = c2
initial resistance(R1)= 10 ohms
final resistance(R2) = 50 ohms
relation b/w current and resistance is inverse
hence
c1 x r1 = c2 xr2
50 *10 =c2*50
divide with 50 on both sides

10 =c2
current = 10 amps
