Reference Answer
### (a) Ohm's Law (3 Marks)
Ohm's Law provides the fundamental relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in a linear electrical circuit. It states that:
* The current (I) flowing through a conductor between two points is **directly proportional** to the voltage (V) across the two points.
* The current (I) is **inversely proportional** to the resistance (R) of the conductor.
