if R4 is the only resistor (the load), then the drop would be the same as the energy source

If 2 resistors or resistance 10 ohm and 5 ohm resp r connected in parallel which will get more heated?

The 5 Ohm resistor will have more current passing through it than the 10 ohm resistor. Since the resistors are in parallel the Voltage across each resistor is the same. Power or the amount of heat in terms of the question can be derived from Power = Voltage * Current. Ohm's law tells us that the current flowing through a resistor is equal to the Voltage across the resistor divided by the resistance. The formula for power is then the Voltage * Voltage / Resistance. Since V^2 / 10 is smaller than V^2 / 5 we know that the 5 ohm resistor will always have more power dissipated than the 10 ohm resistor.


What is the potential difference across a single 4 Ohm resistor if the source voltage is 230v?

the potential difference across the single 4ohm resistor is 230volts.


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 curent flowing through it?

Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance


If you have two 75 ohm resisters one 150 ohm resistor and one 300 ohm resistor in a series circuit which one will cause the largest voltage drop?

Ohms law is: V = I x R (voltage = current x resistance) ... therefore the larger the resistance the larger the voltage drop across that resistance.

What is power and current if resistor is 500 ohm?

The question is incomplete without the voltage across the resistor. For example: if V (Voltage across 500 ohm resistor) = 5 Volts, then, Current, I = 5/500 Ampere = 0.01 A.

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 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


How must the voltage across a resistor change to reduce the current in the resistor by a factor of 3?

The voltage must reduce by the same factor - that is Ohm's law.

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 voltage drop across a 12 ohm resistor with a source of 24 volts?

If there's nothing else between the ends of the resistor and the power supply, then the voltage across the resistor is 24 volts, and the current through it is 2 amperes.


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).


Can you provide some Ohm's Law practice questions for me to work on?

Here are some practice questions based on Ohm's Law: If a resistor has a resistance of 10 ohms and a current of 2 amperes flowing through it, what is the voltage across the resistor? A circuit has a voltage of 12 volts applied across a resistor with a resistance of 4 ohms. What is the current flowing through the resistor? If a circuit has a current of 0.5 amperes flowing through a resistor with a resistance of 8 ohms, what is the voltage across the resistor? These questions will help you practice applying Ohm's Law to calculate voltage, current, and resistance in electrical circuits.


What does resistor perform?

A resistor's resistance is measured in ohms. The higher the resistance the less current will flow with a constant voltage applied across the resistor. In terms of Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance.
