62.53 ohms

Step-by-step explanation

Ohm's law states that the voltage or potential difference between two points is directly proportional to the current or electricity passing through the resistance, and directly proportional to the resistance of the circuit.


\begin{gathered} V=IR \\ so \\ R=(V)/(I) \end{gathered}

then

Step 1

a)let


\begin{gathered} V=12.0\text{ v} \\ I=0.195\text{ A} \end{gathered}

now, replace in the formula


\begin{gathered} R=(V)/(I) \\ R=\frac{12.0\text{ v}}{0.195\text{ A}} \\ R=62.53\text{ }\Omega \end{gathered}

therefore, the answer is

62.53 ohms

I hope this helps you
