How do you calculate the current in a circuit?
we can calculate the current in a commmon electrical circuit by this formulae i.e,I=V\R where i is the current flowing in the conductor, R is resistance , V is the voltage.. THE FORMULA IS CORRECT but the term conductor does not suffice an explanation since a conductor is low in resistance R= resistance not conduction.

Resistance calculations are the same no matter what the polarity of applied voltage. R=E/I Resistance (in ohms) = Voltage (in volts) divided by Current (in amperes)
How to calculate resistance of circuit where one resistor is connected in series with other two resistors in parallel?
In this case, to get the equivalent resistance, first you use the parallel formula (1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2) to calculate the equivalent resistors in parallel. Then you calculate the series resistance of this combination, with the other resistor.
What is formula for current in physical science?
One way to calculate current is using ohms law; current equals voltage divided by resistance or: I=V/R Where I is current, V is voltage and R is resistance.
How do you find resistance when you have current and resistance total?
If you are looking for the resistance of each resistor in either a series circuit or a parallel circuit you must measure the current I and the voltage V for each resistor. Then calculate its resistance using Ohms Law R = V / I where I = current (Amps), V = voltage (Volts) and R= resistance (Ohms).
How does a Digital Multi-Meter or DMM measure resistance?
A DMM measures resistance by passing a known current through the object you are measuring and reads the voltage. You can then calculate the resistance using the equation V=I*R. R=V/I So for 1mA and a return voltage of 1V the resistance must = 1 KOhm. R= 1/0.001 = 1000 Ohm
How many ohms is the resistance of the bulb?
A lamp has two resistances: a 'hot' resistance (its operating resistance) and its 'cold' resistance (its resistance when switched off), and the hot resistance is significantly higher than its cold resistance.You can calculate its 'hot' resistance from its rated power and its rated voltage (assuming that it is being supplied at its rated voltage), by manipulating the following equation, to make Rthe subject: P= V2/RYou will, though, have to measure its cold resistance.
What happens to resistance when resistors are wired in parallel?
In that case, the resulting (equivalent) resistance will be less than any of the individual resistances. The equivalent resistance is calculated by the formula: 1 / R = 1 / R1 + 1 / R2 + 1 / R3 ... Where "R" is the equivalent resistance you want to calculate, and R1, R2, etc. are the resistance values of the individual resistors.
