Ohm’s Law states that the current through a resistor is proportional to the voltage across the resistor and inversely proportional to the resistance. Students will determine the relationship between current, potential difference, and resistance in a simple circuit and will examine the potential versus current behavior of a resistor and current versus resistance for a fixed potential.
