Answer:

use v=IR

Step-by-step explanation:

so, 160=I*5

I = 160/5

=32 ampere

The current = 32 A

Further explanation

Electric current is a ratio between the voltage and the amount of resistance at the conductor.

Can be formulated


\large{\boxed{\bold{I=(V)/(R)}}

V = Voltage (volts)

R = resistance (ohms)

This formula is also known as Ohm's Law, which states that

the amount of current flowing is directly proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance.

V=160 V

R=5Ω


\tt I=(160)/(5)=32~A
