Question

25. A simple circuit has a resistance of 16 and a voltage of 50V. What is the current in thecircuit?

Answer 1

Given:

The resistance of the circuit, R=16 Ω

The voltage across the circuit, V=50 V

To find:

The current through the circuit.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Ohm's law, the voltage across a circuit is directly proportional to the current through the circuit.

That is,

`V=IR`

On substituting the known values,

`\begin{gathered} 50=I*16 \\ \implies I=(50)/(16) \\ =3.13\text{ A} \end{gathered}`

Final answer:

The current in the circuit is 3.13 A
