Answer: Current will reduce by half
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for Current is;
Current = Voltage/ Resistance
Say for instance that Voltage is 5 volts and Resistance is 2 ohms. Current will be;
= 5/2
= 2.5 amps
If Voltage is decreased by one half to 2.5 while resistance is held constant, current becomes;
= 2.5/2
= 1.25 amps
Current went from 2.5 to 1.25 amps.
This shows that current will reduce by half if the voltage is decreased by one half while the resistance is held constant.
