Ohm's Law: Current is voltage divided by resistance.
Alternative AnswerIf, by 'statement', you are referring to a 'law', then there is no electrical law that states that 'current is voltage divided by resistance'.
The relationship between voltage, current, and resistance is derived from the definition of the ohm, which is defined in terms of a volt per ampere, which can be manipulated to say that 'current is equal to voltage divided by resistance'.
This is frequently, but incorrectly, described as being 'Ohm's Law', but Ohm's Law isn't universal and it only applies to a very limited range of linear (or 'ohmic') loads, whereas 'resistance is voltage divided by current' applies to allloads (linear or non-linear) at any given value of voltage.

The statement that current is equal to the voltage difference divided bythe resistance in known as?
Ohm's Law V = I R Voltage = Current x Resistance
Voltage muiltiplied by resistance measures to current?
No. Voltage divided by resistance is equal to current.
What is the statement current is equal to the the voltage difference divided by the resistance know as?
Ohm's law.
What happens to the current in a device if the resistance of the device increases and the voltage difference stays the same?
If resistance increases and voltage stays the same, then current decreases. Ohm's Law: Current equals Voltage divided by Resistance.
The statement, current is equal to the voltage difference divided by the resistance, is known as?
Ohm's Law. It is usually written as V = I x R or in words Voltage is equal to Current times Resistance; or in your terms I = V / R.
Current is equal to the voltage difference of a circuit divded by its resistance?
Similarly the OHM is said to be the HOME of the volt.
The statement current is equal to the voltage difference divided by the resistance is known as?
Ohm's Law.AnswerActually, Ohm's Law makes no mention of 'resistance', and the equation to which you refer is actually derived from the definition of the ohm, and not from Ohm's Law.Ohm's Law simply describes the linear relationship that exists between current and voltage in some, but not all, conductors.Incidentally, there is no such thing as a 'voltage difference' because voltage is synonymous with potential difference, so 'voltage difference' is the same as saying 'potential difference difference'!
Why is there no flow of electric current between 2 objects of equal resistance?
I am not sure how the two objects of equal resistance are supposed to be connected. But for a current to flow, for example across a resistor, there must be a voltage difference between the terminals of this resistor.
What is equal to voltage times current?
Power, in 'watts'.
What happens to the current if restistance is increased and why?
There is an electronic formula voltage/resistance = current If you translate this into plumbing terms voltage would equal water pressure resistance would equal pipes and valves and the current would equal the flow rate. If you start closing a valve it increases resistance and lowers the current flow
What is the relation between voltage and current?
Voltage and current are two different things. Voltage is the electric potential difference between two points. Expressed in volts, it is also joules per coulomb. Current is the charge flow past a point. Expressed in amperes, it is also coulombs per second. You can relate voltage and current using Ohm's Law, which states that voltage is equal to current times resistance. Resistance is, therefore, equal to voltage divided by current. Using base units, resistance is equal to joules per coulomb divided by coulombs per second, which simplifies to joule-seconds per coulomb squared. That is a difficult unit to write, so we just use ohms as the unit.
Is current the voltage multiplied by resistance?
No. V =Voltage, I =current, and R =resistancein the simple equation: V=I*R. As well, V/I=R, and. V/R=Iso Current is voltage divided by resistance
