What is the potential difference across a 1500 ohm resistor carrying a current of 0.075 A?

Potential Difference across a resistor is given by, Potential Difference = Resistance * Current = 1500 * 0.075 = 112.5 Volts


When the current traveling through a resistor is increased what happens to the voltage that travels through the same resistor?

Your question reveals fundamental misunderstandings about the nature of electricity.'Voltage' is simply another word for 'potential difference', and a potential difference appears across opposite ends of the resistor; it doesn't 'travel through' that resistor! Current, on the other hand, DOES 'travel through' the resistor and is caused by the potential difference across the resistor.Resistance is the ratio of potential difference to current. So if the resistance remians unchanged when the current through it doubles, then it has happened because the potential difference has doubled.


What is the potential difference across a resistor that dissipates 24 W of power and has a current of 3 A?

Work it out yourself. PD=P/I, Where PD=Potential Difference, P=Power & I=Current


What will be the potential difference across a 50Ω resistor if a current of 500mA is flowing through it?

Potential difference equals current multiplied by resistance or E = IR therefore the answer to your question is 25 volts


What is the potential difference across a single 4 Ohm resistor if the source voltage is 230v?

the potential difference across the single 4ohm resistor is 230volts.


What is possible unit for the product VI where V is the potential difference across a resistor and you is the current through the same resistor?

A possible/probable unit is Watts.


How is the potential difference across a resistor measured?

by using voltmeter


If there is a potential difference of 12 V across a resistor with 0.25 A current in it the resistance if the resistor is?

Resistance (Ohms) = Potential Difference (Volts) / Current (Amps) So, 12/0.25 = 48 Ohms.


What is the current across a 10k resistor and 20 volts?

First of all, current goes straight through the resistor, not across it.If the potential difference between the ends of the resistor is 20 volts,and its resistance is 10,000 ohms, then the current through it isI = E/R = 20/10,000 = 0.002 ampere = 2 milliamperes


What is the resistance of a resistor if the potential differennce across the resistor is 9 V when current of 1 A flows through the resistor?

9 ohms


How much current flows through a resistor of 285 ohms if the potential difference across the resistor is 122 volts?

Use Ohm's Law, i.e., V=IR here, V=voltage I=current R=resistance


Is voltage established through a resistor or across a resistor?

Current = charge (electrons) flowing through a resistor.Voltage = energy lost across a resistor.Power = energy lost across a resistor per second.So yes you are correct. Current is established through a component, while voltage and power are established across a component.Answer'Voltage' is a synonym for 'potential difference'. As the name implies, voltage describes the difference in potential between (or 'across') two different points. So voltage is applied ACROSS a resistor.Further to the original answer. voltage is NOT equivalent to 'the energy lost across a resistor', and power is NOT 'established across a resistor' (power is simply a 'rate', nothing more)!
