If the voltage in an electric circuit is held constant, the current I is
\n" ); document.write( " inversely proportional to the resistance R.
\n" ); document.write( " If the current is 40 amperes when the resistance is 270 ohms,
\n" ); document.write( " find the current when the resistance is 150 ohms.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Ohm's law for finding the voltage; E = I*R
\n" ); document.write( "E = 40 * 270
\n" ); document.write( "E = 10,800 volts
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Ohm's law for finding the current I = E/R
\n" ); document.write( "I = \"10800%2F150\"
\n" ); document.write( "I = 72 amps
