The SI unit of electric current is the:
Ohm's law states that V is equal to:
A 12 V battery drives a current of 3 A through a resistor. What is its resistance?
Two 6 ohm resistors are connected in parallel. Their combined resistance is:
A 100 W bulb runs for 10 hours. How many kilowatt hours of energy does it use?
Which device is connected in series in a circuit to measure current?
1. D, 2. B, 3. A, 4. B, 5. C, 6. D
Current is measured in amperes.
V = I R at constant temperature.
R = V / I = 12 / 3 = 4 ohm.
1/R = 1/6 + 1/6 = 1/3, so R = 3 ohm.
Energy = 0.1 kW x 10 h = 1 kWh.
An ammeter is placed in series so that the current flows through it.
