7.4 The Relationship between Current,
Voltage and Resistance
 What is Ohm’s Law ?
 Resistance (R) = Voltage (V)
Current (I)
 What is the relationship between voltage and
current when the resistance is fixed?

in a row of resistors parallel branches

I = I1 = I2 Current I = I1 + I2
V = V1 + V 2 Voltage V = V1 = V 2

R = R1 + R 2 Resistance 1/R=1/R1 + 1/R2
