To solve the question "The current in a wire depends on...", we can analyze the relationship between current (I), potential difference (V), and resistance (R) using Ohm's Law. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding 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. This can be mathematically expressed as: \[ I = \frac{V}{R} ...
