A 14 ohm conductor measures a current of 20 amps what is the voltage?

14 ohm X 20 A = 240 V (V=IR) the answer is 280 14x20 is 280!


What would the ohm reading be on a digital meter for a 4500 watt baseboard heater?

To calculate the ohm reading of a 4500-watt baseboard heater, you would need to know the voltage it operates at. You can use the formula Ohms = (Voltage x Voltage) / Watts to find the resistance in ohms. For example, if the heater operates at 240 volts, the ohm reading would be approximately 12.8 ohms.


8 ohm element that operates a 240 volts the power that's consumed is?

Assuming a pure resistive load Ohm's Law tells us 240 / 8 = Current = 30 Amps. Watts = Volts x Amps so 240 x 30 = 7,200 Watts = 7.2 KW.


What will happen if an electric water heater which is designed for operation at 240 volts is connected to 120 volts?

240 heater on 120 volts The load is a resistive load and as such it is governed by Ohm's law. Current is directly proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance. As the voltage goes down so does the current. For example take a 2200 watt heater at 220 volts = 10 amps. R = E/I = 220/10 = 22 ohms of resistance in the heater. Now take the 2200 watt heater and using the same formula and at 110 volts. I = E/R, Amps = Volts / Resistance. 110/22 = 5 amps. As you can see ohm's law holds true, the current is inversely proportional to the resistance and as the voltage goes down so does the current. To answer the question, yes a 220 volt heater will run on a 110 volt circuit but at 1/4 of the wattage that the heater is rated at. W = A x V = 5 x 110 = 550 watts.
