Current = Voltage/Resistance

= 1.5/3

Current = 0.5 amps - A

Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Ohm's law, at constant temperature, the current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference applied across the conductor.

V = IR

Where I be the current and R be the resistance.

So, according to the questions

1.5 = I × 3

I = 0.5 A
