If you wish to increase the amount of current in a resistor from 120 mA to 160 mA by changing the 24 V source, what should the new voltage setting be?
8 V
320 V
3.2 V
32 V
Answer: Option

1ST INCREASING THE AMOUNT OF CURRENT FROM 120mA THEN CHANGING THE VOLTAGE FROM 24V.. K SO, R=V/I R=24/120 R=0.2K.O ... NOW WE R FIND RESISTOR VALUE... NOW WE WANT NEW VOLTAGE SETTING... SO,PUT THE RESISTOR VALUE IN OHMS LAW... ALREADY WE HAVE mA VALUE.. SO, V=I*R V=160*0.2 "V=32V "...

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

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

No need to go for calculation 4 like these maths. We know only option to increase current in a give circuit increase voltage. So to increase current voltage must be increased. All other values are less the 24 and only 32 and 320 are higher.
