An electrical circuit has an expected current of 80 A an electrician measures the current in the circuit at 120 A, which statement provides a possible explanation for this observation?

Question

An electrical circuit has an expected current of 80 A an electrician measures the current in the circuit at 120 A, which statement provides a possible explanation for this observation?

There is not enough electrical energy in the circuit
The circuit has an extra resistor
A resistor in the circuit is broken
There is not enough voltage in the circuit

Answer 1

A possible explanation for the observed current of 120 A in the circuit, when the expected current is 80 A, could be that there is an extra resistor in the circuit.
