Question

A TV remote has a resistance of 9.2 Ω and is connected to two AA batteries with a potential difference of 3.0 V. What is the current passing through the remote control?

Answer 1

Given:

Resistance, R = 9.2 Ω

Voltage, V = 3.0 V

Let's find the current passing through the remote control.

To find the current, apply Ohm's Law.

`V=IR`

Where:

V is the voltage

I is the current

R is the resistance.

Here, we are to find the current passing through the remote.

Rewrite the formula for I:

`I=(V)/(R)`

Thus, we have:

`\begin{gathered} I=(V)/(R) \\ \\ I=(3.0)/(9.2) \\ \\ I=0.33\text{ A} \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the current passing through the remote control is 0.33 Ampere.

ANSWER:

0.33 A
