Answer:

A) Current equals the product of voltage and resistance for an ohmic device. False (current is voltage divided by resistance)

B) The greater the length of a wire, the higher the resistance of the wire. True (Resistivity is directly proportional to lenght and inversely proportional to the cross sectional area)

C) The potential difference produced by a battery varies depending on the circuit in which it is used. False (the potential difference of a battery is constant, the current drawn is what varies with circuit)

D) The thicker an electrical wire, the higher the resistance of the wire. False ( Resistivity is inversely proportional to the cross sectional area of the conductor).
