Question

A 24-V battery is powering a light bulb with a resistance of 2.5 ohms. What is the current flowing through the bulb? A) 9.6 A B) 21.5 A C) 26.5 A D) 60 A

Answer 1

the answer is A 9.6 Amps

Answer 2

The correct answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must pose the formula that relates voltage (V), current (I) and resistance (R).

V = I * R

Now we have as data the tension and the resistance, for which clearing the current remains:

I =
`(V)/(R)`

V = 24 V

R = 2,5 ohms

I =
`(24 V)/(2,5 ohms)`

I =
`9,6 (V)/(ohms)` = 9.6 A

The circulating current is equal to 9.6 A.

Have a nice day!
