    Answer:

    i = 1.533\,A, i = 2.447\,A

    Explanation:

    The current is determined by the Ohm’s Law:

    \Delta V = i \cdot R

    i = \frac{\Delta V}{R}

    The current in a 75\,\Omega Resistor is:

    i=\frac{115\,V}{75\,\Omega}

    i = 1.533\,A

    If current resistor is replaced by 47\,\Omega model, then the current is:

    i = \frac{115\,V}{47\,\Omega}

    i = 2.447\,A

    Answer:

    1.53A; 2.45A

    Explanation:

    According to ohm’s law which states that the current passing through a metallic conductor at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends. Mathematically,

    V = IR where;

    V is the potential difference

    I is the current

    R is the Resistance.

    If a a potential difference of 115 V is placed across 75ohms resistor, the current in the resistor can be calculated as;

    I = V/R where;

    V = 115V

    R = 75ohms

    I = 115/75

    I = 1.53A

    If the resistor is replaced with a 47ohms resistor, the current I’m the resistor will be calculated as;

    I = V/R

    I = 115/47

    I = 2.45A

    According to the answers, the current decreases with increasing resistance because resistance tends to oppose the flow of current.
