Question

the resistance of a circuit in which a 12-volt battery produces a current of 2 amps be ____ohms.

Answer 1

We will use the formula of Ohm's Law, which states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points.

$V=RI$

where

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

I is the current

In our case we have

V=12 V

I= 2 A

we need to find the resistance, so we need to isolate the R in the formula

$R=\frac{V}{I}$

Then we substitute the values

$R=\frac{12}{2}=6\Omega$

therefore

the resistance of a circuit in which a 12-volt battery produces a current of 2 amps be 6 ohms.​
