To solve the problem of calculating the current flowing through a wire of resistance 5 ohms connected to a battery of potential difference 3 volts, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Ohm's Law Ohm's Law states that the current (I) flowing through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage (V) across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance (R) of the conductor. The formula is given by: \[ V = I \times R \] ### Step 2: Rearrange the Formula To find the current (I), we can rearrange Ohm's Law: ...
