Is resistor measured in amps?
No, resistors are measured in ohms, not amps. Ohms represent the resistance offered by the resistor to the flow of current, whereas amps (amperes) represent the measure of current flowing through a circuit.
When Resister is 120 volts and the current through the resister is 0.5 Amps determine the value of the resistor in ohms?
Using Ohms Law, the answer is 120/0.5 = 240 Ohms.
What voltage is applied to a 4 ohm resistor if the current is 1.5 amps?
Ohm's law: Volts = amps times ohms In the case of a 4 ohm resistor with 1.5 amps of current, the voltage is 6 volts.
What voltage is developed across a 6 Ω resistor if 3 A of current flows through it?
The answer is 6 ohms x 3 amps which is 18 v.
What is the voltage drop through a resistor of 6 ohms (2 amps)?
12 volts
A 10 ohms resistor is connected aross a 12 volt battery How much current is there through the resistor?
Voltage = Current * ResistanceVoltage = 12VResistance = 10 ohmsCurrent = Voltage/ResistanceCurrent = 12V/10 ohmsCurrent = 1.2 Amps
A current of 200 micro A through a 6.8 k ohm resistor produces a voltage drop of?
1.36 volts Ohm's Law: Volts = Amps * Ohms
A galvanometer of resistance 50 ohms is shunted with a wire of 10 ohmsCalculate the current through the galvanometer when the current in the circuit is 12 amps?
If this is a homework related question, you really should consider trying to solve it yourself before looking at this answer. Otherwise, the value of the lesson, and the reinforcement provided by the assignment, will be lost to you. To calculate the current flow in one element of a parallel circuit, knowing the resistance of each element, consider the net resistance first. Two resistors in parallel, R1 and R2, have a net resistance of R1R2/(R1+R2). For 50 ohms and 10 ohms, this is 8.333 ohms. Now, consider the voltage across the resistors. By Ohm's law, voltage is current times resistance. For 12 amps and 8.333 ohms, you get 100 volts. Now, consider the current through one resistor, By Ohm's law, current is voltage divided by resistance. For 100 volts and 50 ohms, you get 2 amps. All of that said, now to the easier method... Resistors in parallel form a current divider, just like resistors in series form a voltage divider. You have two resistors, 10 ohms and 50 ohms, with 12 amps going through them. The current through the 50 ohm resistor is the ratio of the other resistor divided by the sum of the two resistors. This is 12 amps times 10 / (10 + 50), or 12 amps times 1 / 6, or 2 amps.
If a current of 2 amps flows through a 12 ohm resistor what is the voltage across the resistor?
V = (I) x (R) = 2 x 12 = 24 volts
What is the Current through a 4 Ohm Resistor with 20 Volts across it?
Ohms law states that V = I (current) x R Rearranging for I, I = V / R therefore I = 20 / 4 = 5 Amps
How current passes through resistor.?
What is the current running through resistor four?1 amps..!What is the current running through resistor one? 3 amps...!What is the current running through resistor three? 2amps..!What is the current running through resistor five? 3 amps..!What is the voltage drop running through resistor five? 45 volts...!What is the equivalent resistance through the parallel portion of the circuit? 6 ohmsAnswerA resistor is a conductor, albeit one with a higher resistance than a length of wire, so current passes through it without any problem. The magnitude of the current will, of course, be somewhat lower because of the additional resistance.
What is the total current flowing through a 45 ohm resistor (1.4 amps) and a 20 ohm resistor (1.8 amps)?
Just add the amps (3.2 amps).
