V = IR Flashcards
1
Q
What does V = IR stand for?
A
Potential Difference/Voltage = Current x Resistance
2
Q
What does the equation V = IR tell us about the relationship between voltage, current and resistance?
A
As long as the resistance stays constant, then as we increase the voltage, the current should increase proportionally or vice versa.
3
Q
If we increased the temperature, what would happen to the resistance?
A
The resistance would also increase.
4
