Question

Suppose you have a car with a battery that applies 12.5 V to the starter.

What is the effective resistance of a car’s starter when 125 A flows through it in Ω?

Answer 1

R = 0.1 ohms

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Voltage of the battery, V = 12.5 V

Current flowing in the car's starter, I = 125 A

We need to find the effective resistance of a car's starter. It can be calculated using Ohm's law. Let R is the resistance.

`V=IR\\\\R=(V)/(I)\\\\R=(12.5)/(125)\\\\R=0.1\ \Omega`

So, the resistance of the car's starter is 0.1 ohms.
