Current means flow of electrons
Whereas the difference between two points is the voltage difference.
Example: when you hold a filled jug of water at a certain height, it is the voltage. Because there is some difference of water at you end and the ground.
But when you start pouring the water from the jug, water will fall on the ground which can be said a current.

Does Kirchhoff current law and Kirchhoff voltage law depend on the relationship between current and voltage in a resistor?
Kirchhoff's Voltage and Current Laws apply to circuits: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex.If your circuit comprises just a single resistor, then they still apply. For example, the voltage drop across a single resistor will be equal and opposite the applied voltage (Kirchhoff's Voltage Law), and the current entering the resistor will be equal to the current leaving it (Kirchhoff's Current Law).
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
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.
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
Amps times ohms equal?
voltage! measured in volts. current X resistance = voltage simple ohms law
Voltage muiltiplied by resistance measures to current?
No. Voltage divided by resistance is equal to current.
What is equal to voltage times current?
Power, in 'watts'.
Does voltage divided by watts equal the current?
Electric power is not defined as current divided by voltage. Electric power (Watts) is equal to amps times voltage
What is kirchoff voltage law and kirchoff current law?
kirchoffs voltage law : the algebric sum of all voltage drop is equal to algebric sum of voltage risekirchoffs current law : algebric sum of all current entering at a node is equal to algebric sum of current leavingCommentIt's Kirchhoff, not 'Kirchoff'!
What is open circuit characteristic?
The terminal voltage is equal to the supply voltage and there is zero current.

How does the voltage applied to a circuit affect the current flowing through the wire?
Voltage is equal to the Current multiplied by the Resistance.Without changing the resistance, increasing the applied voltage in a circuit will increase current flow. There is a simple, direct relationship between voltage and current. Double the voltage, twice the current will flow. Triple the voltage, and the current will triple. As voltage (E) equals current (I) times resistance (R), when resistance is fixed, what happens to voltage will happen to current.
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
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
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.
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.
What happen to the current when the voltage is greater than or equal to 6 volts?
The current is greater than or equal to (6) divided by (the effective resistance of the circuit).
