For 1v 5ma changed so like that 40 ma changes means 8 v changes.

So to add that 24+8=32v for 160A

With help of maths therasuit

120mA - 24V

Then 160mA - (?) (How Much)

Means 160*24/120 = 32V

Hi santosh its obviously ohms law, since we are doing problems under ohms law subtitle.

Hi nikul which formula you are using to solve this, may I know the name of the formula.

Apply Ohm's law;
V1/V2 = I1/I2.
24/V2 = 120/160,
V2 = 24/0.75.
V2 = 32volts.

V is directly proportional to I (i.e) go with @Ashutosh is very smart.

Just apply the formula V1/I1 = V2/I2 then we will get the answer.

Thank you all for giving different methods to get the answer.

Thanks for all your calculation. I get it now.

V1/I1 = V2/I2.

24/120 = V2/160.

V2 = 32Volt.
