A 6 volt battery is connected across a 8 ohm resistor. how much current will flow through the resistor? also I would like to just have a flat answer with no in depth explanation because I'm on a crunch for time it would be greatly appreciated.

Given data

*The given battery voltage is V = 6 V

*The given resistor is R = 8 ohm

The formula for the current flow through the resistor is given as


I=(V)/(R)

Substitute the values in the above expression as


\begin{gathered} I=(6)/(8) \\ =0.75 \end{gathered}

Thus, the current flow through the resistor is I = 0.75 A, and the correct answer is (D)
