Their relationship is only dependent on the voltage lost across that resistor; voltage equals resistance times current, so increasing the current for a given voltage will require a decrease in the resistance, and vice versa.

What will happen when we change value of load resistance in transformer?
When the value of the load resistance in a transformer is changed, it will affect the current flowing through the circuit. Increasing the load resistance will decrease the current, while decreasing the load resistance will increase the current. This change in current will in turn affect the voltage across the load and the efficiency of the transformer.
What is the relation between internal resistance and load resistance when current is constant in the circute?
The total resistance of a circuit is the sum of the supply's internal resistance and its load resistance, because they are in series with each other. This is true regardless of the magnitude of, or the variation in, the current.
Why does the terminal voltage decreases as the load current increases?
A: That will happen anytime the voltage source is not able to provide the power needed for the load. If the load exceed the power available from the source the voltage will be reduced as IR drop from the source
How does loading effect affect flow of current?
Ohm's Law says that Voltage = Current x Resistance (Load). Therefore Current = Voltage / Resistance and as resistance decreases current increases and as resistance increases current decreases.
What is the resistance of the circuit if current flow is 5 amps in a 115-volt power aource?
As resistance is the ratio of voltage to current, you simply divide the voltage by the current to find the resistance.Strictly speaking however, for a.c. systems, this will give you the impedance, rather than the resistance, of the load. Impedance which, like resistance, is measured in ohms, is the opposition to a.c. current, and is a combination of the load's resistance and reactance.
How does load current varies with the load resistance?
Load current is related to load resistance by an inverse relationship. The load current increases linearly as load resistance decreases. Remember, the less resistance, the more current.
Why are the readings on a ammeter always different?
The readings on an ammeter indicate the current being drawn by a load in a circuit. This load is basically a resistance to current flow. The higher the resistance, the lower the current. The supply voltage has a direct effect on current flow. The higher the voltage applied, the higher the current will be. So the readings will vary on the ammeter according to fluctuations in load and or resistance of the circuit and the applied voltage.
If you doubled the load resistor in a wheatstone bridge. the load current would not be half as much Why not?
Because by increasing the load resistance, the total circuit resistance is reduced. This means with less resistance, there is more current drawn from the source. Doubling the size of a load resistor increases the load current.

When the value of the load resistance in a transformer is changed, it will affect the current flowing through the circuit. Increasing the load resistance will decrease the current, while decreasing the load resistance will increase the current.

What controls current?
The load resistance in the circuit controls the current flow.

Why does the terminal or load voltage vary when the load resistance is changed?
The behaviour you are describing is, in fact, due to the internal resistance of the voltage source.When a voltage source, such as a battery or generator, is not connected to a load, its potential difference is simply the electromotive force (or 'no-load voltage') of that source. When a load is connected, a load current flows not only through the load itself, but also through the internal resistance of the source. This causes an internal voltage drop across the internal resistance, which acts in the opposite sense (i.e. in accordance with Kirchhoff's Voltage Law), or direction, to the electromotive force, thus reducing the voltage available at the terminals. The greater the load (i.e. the lower the load resistance), the greater the resulting load current, and the greater the internal voltage drop -and the lower the terminal voltage.
What will be the load voltage if load resistance is 10 k ohm and load current is 2 ma?
Ohm's Law: Voltage is equal to current times resistance 0.002 amperes times 10,000 ohms equals 20 volts.
Does the voltage that runs through different appliances vary according to the resistance of the appliances?
No, it is the current (amperes) that vary according to the resistance.
