Question

determining the effect of voltage and resistance on electric current
use the drop - down menus to complete the statements.
an increase in voltage results in in current.
an increase in resistance results in in current.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Ohm's Law

Ohm's Law is $I=\frac{V}{R}$, where $I$ is current, $V$ is voltage and $R$ is resistance.

Step2: Analyze voltage - current relationship

When $R$ is constant, from $I = \frac{V}{R}$, if $V$ increases, $I$ will increase since $I$ is directly proportional to $V$.

Step3: Analyze resistance - current relationship

When $V$ is constant, from $I=\frac{V}{R}$, if $R$ increases, $I$ will decrease since $I$ is inversely proportional to $R$.

Answer:

An increase in voltage results in an increase in current.
An increase in resistance results in a decrease in current.
