Resistance was increased mean current also increase by a factor of five.

V=IR.

Current is constant then what may be changes in the voltage proportionality change in the current.

Kalai said:   1 decade ago
@Kalai is correct if voltage increases current also increases states by ohm's law.

Kalai said:   1 decade ago
Voltage is directly proportional to the current so voltage increases current also increases.

Revendra said:   1 decade ago
Ohm's law states that.

"The current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points".

So voltage increases 5 time will current also increases 5 time.

V=IR.

I=V/R.

The current and the resistor ore inversely proportional. If current increases the resistor value decreases (or) the current decreases the resistor value increases.

When the voltage will be high in a resistor? If the current through the resistor high. So voltage through the resistor is 5 times higher means the current through the resistor is also 5 times higher.

When are Increses current becomes small. Then how it is possible?

V/R=I
SO IF R REMAINS CONST,
AND V INCREASED 5 TIMES
I WILL ALSO INCREASED BY A FACTOR OF FIVE
