Using Ohm's Law, if voltage is 120V and resistance is 40Ω, what is the current?
Answer: 3A
I = V ÷ R = 120 ÷ 40 = 3 amperes.
A circuit has a current of 5A and resistance of 24Ω. What is the voltage?
Answer: 120V
V = I × R = 5 × 24 = 120 volts.
The voltage across a resistor is 60V and the current through it is 2A. What is the resistance?
Answer: 30Ω
R = V ÷ I = 60 ÷ 2 = 30 ohms.
Three resistors of 10Ω, 20Ω, and 30Ω are connected in series. What is the total resistance?
Answer: 60Ω
Series resistance: R_total = R1 + R2 + R3 = 10 + 20 + 30 = 60Ω.
A motor draws 15A from a 240V supply. What is the power consumed?
Answer: 3,600W
P = V × I = 240 × 15 = 3,600 watts.
A resistor has a rated power of 10W and a resistance of 40Ω. What is the maximum safe voltage across it?
Answer: 20V
P = V²/R → V² = P × R = 10 × 40 = 400 → V = √400 = 20V.
