Ohm's law where current decreases as resistance increases if voltage is kept constant

Ohm's Law in practice:

The source voltage for the circuit is which provides the potential energy, or pressure for current flow. With value for R1 of and a value for R2 of the total resistance is . Using Ohm's law and inserting the values and solving for current we find that:

V = I R
