What is the current through the 150 ohm resistor?
It depends on the voltage applied across it. But the maximum current is limited by the power-rating of the resistor (power divided by the square of the voltage).
Do you need to apply a load to see a voltage drop across a resistor?
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.
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)!
How does an ammeter work?
An ammeter is a low voltage voltmeter in parallel with a small resistance resistor. Current flow through the resistor creates a voltage drop across it which is then measured by the voltmeter.
How are the plus and minus voltage signs determined for resistors?
Resistors have no polarity. The voltage across a resistor is determined by the direction of current flowing through that resistor (and vice versa).
Does voltage flow across or through a resistor?
No. If a voltage is applied across a resistor, a current flows through it.
Is current is drop when it flowing through the resistor?
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.
What is the current drop 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
What is the rule for voltage across each resistor?
Volt across a resistor = resistance x current through the resistor.
Does current flow through a resistor or across a resistor?
Normally through the resistor's internal construction. It flows through any part of the resistor that has low resistance- be it anywere. And then there's this. It might be that one should consider that current flows through a resistor and voltage is dropped across a resistor. Perhaps this is where the question began. The former is fairly straight forward. The latter can be vexing. Voltage is said to be dropped across a resistor when current is flowing through it. The voltage drop may be also considered as the voltage measureable across that resistor or the voltage "felt" by that resistor. It's as if that resistor was in a circuit by itself and hooked up to a battery of that equivalent voltage.
What is the voltage drop across a resistor of 300 kilo ohm?
What is the amount of current flowing through the resistor? Voltage drop is dependent on the current. Ohm x Amps = Voltage drop
What is the current through the 150 ohm resistor?
It depends on the voltage applied across it. But the maximum current is limited by the power-rating of the resistor (power divided by the square of the voltage).
What kind of relationship can be concluded about the voltage difference across a resistor and the current flowing through it?
POWER=VI. V=voltage I= current
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 current through a 1.5k resistor with voltage of 3V across it?
Two milliamperes. Ohm's law: Current equals voltage divided by resistance.
The voltage drop across a resistor is 1.0 V for a current of 3.0 A in the resistor what is the current that will produce a voltage drop of 9.0 V across the resistor?
The resistor is 1/3 of an ohm. A 9 volt drop across the resistor would cause a draw of 27 amps through the resistor. The wattage you would need for that resistor is at least a 243 watts.
Do you need to apply a load to see a voltage drop across a resistor?
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.
