A certain device in a 120-V circuit has a current rating of 20 A. What is the resistance of the device (how many ohms)?

Respuesta :

Answer:

R = 60 Ω

Explanation:

given,

Potential of the certain device, V = 120 V

current rating of the circuit, I = 20 A

resistance of the device, R = ?

Using Ohm's Law

V = I R

[tex]R = \dfrac{V}{I}[/tex]  

[tex]R = \dfrac{120}{20}[/tex]  

R = 60 Ω

hence, the resistance of the device is equal to 60 Ω

Answer:

6 ohms
