If the potential difference across the ends of a conductor is halved, what happens to the current flowing through it?
- A.It gets increased
- B.It gets doubled
- C.It gets decreased
- D.It gets halved
Show answer
By Ohm's law, at a constant temperature the current through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends, since the current equals the potential difference divided by the resistance.
