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.

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.


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).


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


How do i fine an expression for power that involves only current and voltage?

You do not need ohm's law to relate power to current and voltage. Power is current times voltage. If you know current and voltage, you do not need to know 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 is equal to voltage divided by?

Voltage divided by resistance is equal to current, according to Ohm's Law, which states that ( V = I \times R ) (where ( V ) is voltage, ( I ) is current, and ( R ) is resistance). Therefore, rearranging the formula gives ( I = \frac{V}{R} ). This relationship is fundamental in electrical circuits, illustrating how voltage influences the flow of current through a given resistance.
