🔍 Key Concepts

• Ohm's Law and the relationship between voltage (E), current (I), and resistance (R) • What happens to current when resistance changes but voltage is held constant • Difference between linear change and squared change in electrical relationships

💭 Think About

• Write down the basic Ohm’s Law formula and solve it for current (I) in terms of voltage and resistance. • Imagine slowly increasing the resistance while keeping the voltage fixed—what must happen to the current in that equation? • Compare whether the relationship between current and resistance is directly proportional, inversely proportional, or involves a squared term.

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm the correct form of Ohm’s Law and that you have isolated current (I) correctly. • Check if the equation shows current changing in the same direction as resistance or the opposite direction. • Verify whether there is any square (R² or I²) term in the relationship when voltage is constant.
