Ohm's Law and Circuit Behavior

This animation shows how voltage, current, and resistance relate in a simple circuit, using a battery, resistor, and ammeter to demonstrate that current increases as voltage rises and decreases as resistance rises. A moving graph of V versus I illustrates the straight-line relationship V = IR. Designed for Class 10 students, it builds intuition for solving numerical problems and understanding real circuit behavior before moving to series and parallel combinations.
