Question

A student measures the voltage and current between two points in an
electrical circuit. If the voltage is 120 V and the current is 0.5 A, what is the
resistance, according to Ohm's law?
A. 0.00402
Β. 240 Ω
C. 1200
D. 60.00

Answer 1

Answer:

B. 240Ω

Explanation:

The formula between voltage, current and resistance is:

voltage = current × resistance

So resistance = voltage ÷ current

Therefore resistance = 120 ÷ 0.5

Resistance = 240Ω
