    What is the relationship between current (I), power (P), and voltage (V)?
    Question

    What is the relationship between current (I), power (P), and voltage (V)?

    A.

    I = P2V

    B.

    I = PV

    C.

    I = V ÷ P

    D.

    I = P ÷ V

    Correct option is D

    The correct answer is D  (I = P ÷ V).

    Explanation:

    1. Relationship Between Current (I), Power (P), and Voltage (V):
      • Electric power is given by the formula: P=V×I where:
        • P is power (in watts),
        • V is voltage (in volts),
        • I is current (in amperes).
    2. Rearranging the Formula:
      • To find I, divide both sides of the equation by V:

    I=PVI = \frac{P}{V}​​

    Conclusion

      • Current is directly proportional to power and inversely proportional to voltage.

    Key Points:

    •  Formula: P=V×I
    • Current I=PVI = \frac{P}{V}​​
    • This relationship is crucial for calculating the current in electrical circuits.
