Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the current through a 12Ω resistor connected to a 36V battery?
Correct Answer: 3A
  • Step 1: Identify the values given in the problem. We have a voltage (V) of 36 volts and a resistance (R) of 12 ohms.
  • Step 2: Recall Ohm's Law, which states that current (I) is equal to voltage (V) divided by resistance (R). The formula is I = V / R.
  • Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula. Replace V with 36V and R with 12Ω: I = 36V / 12Ω.
  • Step 4: Perform the division. Calculate 36 divided by 12, which equals 3.
  • Step 5: State the result. The current (I) through the resistor is 3 amperes (A).
