Question

Given a voltage of 120 volts and a current of 5 amps, What is the resistance?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

V = 120

I = 5A

R = find

v=IR

R=V/I

R=120/5

R=24 OHM

Answer 2

Given,

A voltage of 120 volts and a current of 5 amps.

To Find,

The resistance =?

Solution,

We can solve the question as follows:

It is given that a voltage of 120 volts and a current of 5 amps pass through a conductor. We have to find the resistance.

$Voltage = 120\: V$

$Current = 5\: A$

According to the Ohm's Law. the voltage across a conductor is equal to the product of the current and the resistance through it.

$V = IR$

Where,

$V = Voltage\\I = Current\\R = Resistance$

Substituting the values in the above formula,

$120 = 5*R$

$R = \frac{120}{5} = 24\: Ohms$

Hence, the resistance is equal to 24 ohms.
