Answer:

A) 6V

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we need to use ohm's law

We have the resistance


Resistance=R=3ohms

and the current:


Current=I=2A

To find the voltage we use the following formula from ohm's law:


Voltage=(Current)(Resistance)

so


V=I*R

substituting the known values:


V=(2A)(3ohms)=6volts

the voltage of the battery is 6V which is option A.
