Ohm's law is V = I·R. You know V and I, so you can calculate R using R = V/I.
60 V / 2 A = 30 Ω
A circuit with a voltage of 60 volts and a current of 2 amperes has a resistance of 30 ohms.
Ohm's law: Voltage equals resistance times current.
There is a simple equation relating voltage (properly potential difference), current and resistance: V=IR Where V=potential difference, I=current and R=resistance So to answer: I=60/12 I=5
The relation between resistance R, Current I and voltage V is: R= V/I Therefore: 60 = 12 / I <=> I = 12 / 60 = 0.2 amp
An example of a parallel circuit would be the light bulbs in track lighting. Each bulb has the same voltage applied. The current through any one light bulb equals the voltage divided by the resistance of the bulb. The current also equals the wattage of the bulb divided by the voltage. So if all the bulbs had exactly the same resistance the current would be the same. However, your question says "always" so in general the answer is no. In the case of track lighting if you had a 60 watt bulb in parallel with a 120 watt bulb, the 60W bulb would draw 1/2 amp and the 120W bulb would draw 1 amp. The sum of the current flowing in a parallel circuit equals the sum of the current in each leg of the circuit.
By Ohm's law, resistance is voltage divided by current, so the resistance of a light bulb can be measured by observing the voltage across it simultaneously with observing the current through it. Interestingly, the hot resistance is significantly different that the cold resistance, so measuring resistance with an ohmmeter will not give a meaningful resistance. This is because the resistance of a light bulb has a positive temperature coefficient. Take a typical 60 W 120V light bulb, for instance... Its cold resistance is about 16 Ohms. Calculate current and power at 120 V and you get 7.5 A and 900 W. The truth is that at 60 W, the bulb pulls 0.5 A and has a resistance of 240 Ohms.
V = i*r v = 2 * 60 v= 120v
..using the formula Voltage(V)=Current(I) * Resistance(R) .. we can get the result ...current will be 5 Ampere

V = I times R where V = voltage, I = current and R = resistance. Further, I = V / R.As I = V / R, I = 60 /12 = 5 amps.V=IR , where V=60 volts R=12 ohms so I = V/R = 60/12 = 5 Amp.
since it is a simple ckt here we can go for ohm's law according to which voltage(v)=current(I)*resistance(R), so, R=V/I In the problem given, V=60, I=2A on substuting in the formula we get R=60/2 i.e. R=30 ohm inform.mayaprasad@gmail.com
V=IR V=Voltage I=Current R=Resistance I=V/R 5 Amps.
The relation between resistance R, Current I and voltage V is: R= V/I Therefore: 60 = 12 / I <=> I = 12 / 60 = 0.2 amp
Power = Current * Voltage Current = Power / Voltage Current = 60 W / 120 V Curretn = 0.5 A
You need to divide the supply voltage by the impedance of the load. The impedance of the load is the vectorial sum of its resistance and reactance, where reactance is proportional to frequency.
You have it backwards, the resistance controls the current not the current controls the resistance. I = E/R . Your question should read, "If the voltage is constant and the resistance in the circuit is increased what happens to the current?" Say the voltage is 120 volts and the resistance is 30 ohms, I = 120/30 = 4 amps. Now we double the resistance to 60 ohms, then I = 120/60 = 2 amps. So now you can see if you increase the resistance the current drops.
Ohm's law states that V=IR, that is, Voltage is equal to the current through the circuit times the resistance.Manipulating this equation gives I=V/R, so I=60/12 = 5 A
Current or amperage, is wattage divided by voltage. 60 / 120 = .5 amp.
