1. Theoretical Answer
R=1.5/25=0.6 Ohms
2. Practical Answer: Dry cells will not be able to deliver 25A as there are two limtation
a) Internal Resistance that limits the max current.round couple of Ohms. Max current that it can supply is about 1-2 A.
b) Capacity of Dry cells which are typical 700maHr. Even if cell could supply 25A it will only be for 1.7 minutes and then cell will become dead.
c) as the cells get drained there is increase in internal resistance which will further reduce the current.

What is the resistance of a clothes iron that draws a current of 12A at 120V?
By Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance R = V / I = 120 / 12 = 10 Ohms
How much current will 5 kva ups draws while charging?
- For a single phase supply @ 220 voltscurrent drawn by 5kva UPS = 22.7 amperes (at full load.)
Why the rotor winding of a synchronous motor is usually connected to an external resistance during start up?
because at start the motor draws larger quantity of current and this may affected the rotor windings in order to limit current always resistance is connected.
Why does transformer draws current when secondary is kept open?
A: If the transformer is connected to a power input of course it will draw current. The primary is a long wire it has own resistance wrap around an iron core. Of course there will be primary current whether there is a load on the secondary or not.
An old television draws about 3 A of current It plugs into a wall outlet that is 120 V What is the resistance in ohms of the television?
Is this, intentionally, a trick question?We are dealing with alternating current, here, not direct current. So, if you divide the supply voltage by the current drawn by the television set, you are determining its impedance(Z), not its resistance:Z = V/I = 120/3 = 40 ohmsImpedance is the vector sum of resistance and reactance. As the current is probably being drawn by a transformer, the resistance will be significantly lower than the reactance, perhaps only an ohm or two -if that!So, from the information supplied, you cannot determine the resistance.
What is the resistance in a discman if it is connected to an 8.6V battery and draws a current of 0.9 Amperes?
I have no idea
What is the resistance of a 120 volt lamp draws 0.25 amperes of current?
v/i=r so 120/0.25=480 480 ohms is the resistance
An electric appliance draws 1.5 amperes of current when it is connected to a 24-volt source - What is the resistance of this appliance?
The formula is Resistance= Voltage/ Amps(current) In your example: R=50/2.5, so the answer is 20 ohms.
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.
In what way the connections are made to get a higher output current from light?
A light doesn't output current, it "draws" current based on voltage and its resistance. Voltage = Current x Resistance or Current = Voltage / Resistance. (Ohm's Law)
A red resistor draws more current than a blue resistor when they are connected to the same battery which resistor has the lower resistance?
The voltage of a battery goes as the current times the resistance (V=IR). Because the voltage is being held constant, the resistor that draws the most current will have the lower resistance.
What is the resistance of a clothes iron that draws a current of 12A at 120V?
By Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance R = V / I = 120 / 12 = 10 Ohms
One 100-watt bulb draws 0.87 amperes of current how many amperes will 17 such bulb draw?
If this is a homework assignment, please consider trying to answer it yourself first, otherwise the value of the reinforcement of the lesson offered by the assignment will be lost on you.If a 100-watt bulb draws 0.87 amperes of current, 17 of them will draw about 14.8 amperes, (0.87 times 17), if they were wired in parallel.However, wiring them in series would not give you 0.051 amperes, (0.87 divided by 17), as one might expect, because the resistance-temperature coefficient of bulbs is quite dramatic, so more current would actually be drawn because the bulbs would be much cooler. How much more would require testing. You could do this by supplying 6.8 volts to one bulb and seeing what you get, or just hook 17 of them up in series to 115V.
What is the resistance of an electric frying pan that draws 12 amperes of current when connected to a 120 volt circuit?
Given R=? I=12 ampere V=120 Volts equation I=V divided R Solution; R=12 ampere 120 Volts answer (10)
What would be the affect on the overall current in a parallel circuit if additional resistance was added in parallel?
Suppose we have a circuit containing a 15 volt battery and two 10 ohm resistors, and those resistors are in parallel. The total resistance of the two 10 ohm resistors = 5 ohms (1/10 + 1/10 = 1/5). Therefore the total amount of current flowing from the battery = 15/5 = 3 amperes. Adding a third 10 ohm resistor in parallel to the other two means that the total resistance of the circuit is now 3.333 ohms (1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10 = 1/3.333. Therefore the total current flowing from the battery = 15/3.33 = 4.5 amperes. Parallel resistances can be thought of as separate circuits. If we had a circuit containing a 15 V battery and a 10 ohm resistor, then 1.5 amperes would flow around that circuit (V = IR, 15 =10 x 1.5). If you keep adding 10 ohm resistors in parallel then the total current flowing out of the battery will step up accordingly: 1 resistor draws 1.5 amps, 2 draws 3 amps, 3 draws 4.5 amps, 4 draws 6 amps etc.
When a coffeemaker has a resistance of 10 ohms and draws a current of 11A what power does it use?
The power used, assuming Unity Power Factor (resistive load), is the product of resistance and the square of the current -- or 1210 Watts.
If two electrical loads are connected in parallel with each other and each load draws 6 amps what is the total current of the circuit?
12 Amperes is.
