If the current through a heater coil is 5 amp and the supply voltage is 120 volts the coil resistance is?

The formula you are looking for is R = E/I. Resistance = Volts/Amps.


If a 325 watt heater has a current of 6.0A what is the resistance?

Watts = Current x Volts with your resistive heat application. To figure out resistance you need to know voltage and current. Since you are drawing 6 amps then Volts = 325/6. This means that there is about 54 volts supplying the heater which seems like a very strange supply voltage. Since Volts = Current x Resistance the resistance = 325/36.


What happens when a capacitor is connected to a dc supply?

is it ? are you sure ? but i know so many circuit where capacitor is connected with ac supply . still , if u connected a capacitor to dc supply , then : 1. if it is in SERIES with the dc supply , it will block all the dc current as capacitor provides infinite resistance to dc current . application : where u want to block dc current.(simple high pass filter) 2. if it is in PARALLEL with the dc supply , it will not block dc current , but if any ac current comes out from the supply , the ac current will go through the capacitor , as capacitor provides small resistance to ac current. application : a) where u want to block ac current.(simple low pass filter) b) to filter the noise (ac components) of dc supply.


What does a inductor do when connected across ac supply?

opposes changes in current


When the bulb is the resistance what this tells about the resistance?

An incandescent bulb has a filament that has a resistance. The value of the resistance determines the current that will flow for a given supply voltage. The heat generated by the current flowing through the filament gives off light. As the resistance of the filament decreases the current increases and you get more light.

When a single phase supply connect to a electric heater short circuit not there why?

The electric heater is basically a resistor, designed to have the right resistance to draw the required current. So a 2 kW heater designed for a 230 v supply is really a resistor of 28.8 ohms, so when it's connected the current is 8 amps and the power is 2 kW.


An electric lamp has a resistance of 534 ohms when connected to a 230v supply the current flowing would be?

What is the current running through a 90 volt circuit?

It depends on the resistance of everything connected between the terminals of the power supply. If the resistance is infinite or very high, there is little or no current. As the resistance becomes less, the current becomes greater. In general, the current through a circuit with 90 volts applied to it is [ 90 / R ], where 'R' is the resistance of everything across the 90-volt power supply.


If additional resistance is connected in parallel with a circuit the supply voltage will decrease?

If additional resistance is connected in parallel with a circuit the supply voltage will decrease?


What happens to supply voltage if additional resistance is connected in parallel circuit?

No change in supply voltage as additional resistance is connected in parallel circuit.


When a series circuit containing resistance and inductive reactance is connected to a ac supply the current will?

The load current will lag the supply voltage by an angle called a 'phase angle', determined by the values of resistance and inductive reactance. The magnitude of the load current will be determined by the impedance of the circuit, which is the vector sum of the resistance and inductive reactance.


A resistor has a resistance of 176 ohm How many of these resistors should be connected in parallel so that their combination draws a current of 5 amperes from a 220 volt supply line?

4 resistors were connected in parallel it yields 5A of current from 220V supply.

When a multimeter is set to measure resistance?

it determines how well the current flows through the wires. ANSWER: When there is no outside power connected to it. But some power is necessary to read the resistance so the meter battery will supply the current necessary to measure the IR drop and translate that to resistance


When connected to a 110-volt power supply how much current does a light bulb draw when it has a resistance of 220-ohms?

The formulas you are looking for is I = E/R.
