Question

What’s the potential difference across a 5.0 resistor that carries a current of 5.0A

Answer 1

Answer:

V=25.0V

Step-by-step explanation:

Ohm's Law formula states that

V=IR,where

V=potential difference

I= current

R=Resistance.

From the question, I=5.0A and R= 5.0Ω

By substitution,

$\implies V = 5.0 \times 5.0$

$\implies V =25.0 V$

Hence the potential difference is 25.0V
