An electric oven has a resistance of 1.00 kΩ and a voltage of 220 v. how much current does it draw?

2.2A
0.22A
220A
22A

please explain it to me i'm stuck!!

assume that this is a direct current circuit.
V = IR
220 = I(1k)
I = .22 A

Answer:

0.22 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 ends of the conductor.

V = IR

Where, I is the current and R be the resistance.

So, Here, V = 220 V and R = 1 Kilo ohm = 1000 ohm

By using Ohm's law


I = (V)/(R)


I = (220)/(1000)

I = 0.22 A
