What is the current in a 120V circuit if the resistance is 20Ω?

Sagot :

We have: [tex]I=\frac{U}{R}=\frac{120}{20}=6A[/tex]

ok done. Thank to me :>

Answer:

The Current is 6 Ampere.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

  • [tex]\small\red\bull[/tex] Voltage = 120V
  • [tex]\small\red\bull[/tex] Resistance = 20Ω

To Find :

  • [tex]\small\red\bull[/tex] Current

Using Formula :

[tex] \star{\small{\underline{\boxed{\sf{ I = \dfrac{V}{R}}}}}}[/tex]

  • [tex]\small\blue\star[/tex] I = Current
  • [tex]\small\blue\star[/tex] V = Voltage
  • [tex]\small\blue\star[/tex] R = Resistance

Solution :

Substituting all the given values in the formula to find Current :

[tex]{\dashrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{ I = \dfrac{V}{R}}}}}[/tex]

[tex]{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ Current = \dfrac{Voltage}{Resistance}}}}[/tex]

[tex]{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ Current = \dfrac{120}{20}}}}[/tex]

[tex]{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ Current = \cancel{\dfrac{120}{20}}}}}[/tex]

[tex]{\dashrightarrow{\sf{ Current = 6A}}}[/tex]

[tex]{\star{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\red{ Current = 6A}}}}}}[/tex]

Hence, the Current is 6 Ampere.
