Question 543958: The current I in an electrical conductor varies inversely as the resistnace R of the conductor. The current is 7 amperes when the resistance is 990 ohms. What is the current when the resistance is 510 ohms? Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The current I in an electrical conductor varies inversely as the resistnace R of the conductor. The current is 7 amperes when the resistance is 990 ohms. What is the current when the resistance is 510 ohms?
------------
I = k/R
I*R = k (constant)
------------
7*990 = I*510
