The current in an electrical conductor varies inversely as the resistance of the conductor The current is 2 amperes when the resistance is 960 ohms What is the current when the resistance is?

When the resistance is 960 ohms and the current is 2 amperes, we can use the formula for inverse variation: ( current \times resistance = constant ). Thus, ( 2 \times 960 = constant ), which is ( 1920 ). So, if the resistance changes to a new value, we can find the new current by dividing the constant by the new resistance.
