How many volts would be needed to produce a current of 8 amps in a 6 ohm resistor?
a
12 volts
b
1.3 volts
c
48 volts
d
24 volts
no, it's 48. Took the schoology final and that is just really easy.
I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct that the answer is 48 volts. The calculation is:
V = I x R
V = 8 amps x 6 ohms
V = 48 volts
Thank you for correcting me and sorry for any confusion!
To determine the voltage required to produce a current of 8 amps in a 6 ohm resistor, you can use Ohm's Law, which states that voltage (V) is equal to current (I) multiplied by resistance (R).
The formula for Ohm's Law is V = I * R.
Plugging in the given values, we have V = 8 amps * 6 ohms.
Multiplying the values, we get V = 48 volts.
Therefore, the correct answer is c) 48 volts.
