Question

In the following diagram, the voltage is 1.5 volts and the resistance is 7.5 ohms. Use Ohm's law to determine the current in the circuit.
11.3 amps
5.0 amps
6.0 amps
0.2 amps

Answer 1

I=V/R

I=1.5/7.5

I=0.2

The answer is 0.2

Answer 2

Answer:

Current in the circuit, I = 0.2 amps

Explanation:

It is given that,

Voltage of the circuit, V = 1.5 volts

Resistance, R = 7.5 ohms

According to Ohm's law, the voltage is equal to the product of current and the resistance.

i.e. $I=\dfrac{V}{R}$

V is the voltage across the circuit

R is the resistance in the circuit

$I=\dfrac{1.5\ V}{7.5\ \Omega}$

I = 0.2 amps

Hence, the correct option is (d).
