The current I in an electrical conductor varies inversely as the resistance R of the conductor.
\n" ); document.write( " The current is 6 amperes when the resistance is 970 ohms.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Ohms's law: I = \"e%2Fr\", where e = the voltage
\n" ); document.write( "Find the volts
\n" ); document.write( "\"e%2F970\" = 6
\n" ); document.write( "e = 970 * 6
\n" ); document.write( "e = 5820 volts
\n" ); document.write( "\" What is the current when the resistance is 590 ​ohms?
\n" ); document.write( "I = \"5820%2F590\"
\n" ); document.write( "I = 9.86 amps
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Or you can just use the inverse ratio relationship
\n" ); document.write( "\"I%2F6\" = \"970%2F590\"
\n" ); document.write( "I = \"%286%2A970%29%2F590\"
\n" ); document.write( "I = 9.86
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
