30 ohms x 0.5 amp, that is 15 v.
POWER=VI. V=voltage I= current
Current moving through a resistor causes it to heat up because of the flowing electrons bumping into the atoms in the resistor.
Potential difference equals current multiplied by resistance or E = IR therefore the answer to your question is 25 volts
Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance
Current flows in loops, voltage drops across elements. With relation to current, what flows in, must flow out, so no, current is not dropped across a resistor, it flows through a resistor and voltage is dropped across the resistor.
The correct question is what is the voltage drop across a resistor or the current flowing through the resistor using Ohm's Law where Voltage = Current x Resistance
resistor is a passive component which opposes the current flowing through a closed ckt. use in opposition of current in ckt .
by resistor installation
Two resistors wired in series (no mater if they have the same resistor value or not) will always have the same amount of current flowing through them. Therefore, the current flowing through the second resistor will be equal to the current flowing through the first one. The current through every component in a series circuit is the same. The voltage across every component in a parallel circuit is the same.
Which is true of a series circuit that has two resistors?A.The resistors are on different branches of the circuit.B.Neither resistor has current flowing through it.C.One resistor has no voltage across it.D.Both resistors have current flowing through them.
ohm meter puts current thru a resistor to measure voltage drop E / I = R if the circuit already has current flowing the numbers are meaningless
You'll see a voltage drop across a resistor if current is flowing through it. It only has to be a part of a complete circuit, i.e. one in which current is flowing.
