Question

question 5 of 15
how much current will a 120 - v wall outlet push through a 20 - ohm circuit?
______ a

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Ohm's Law

Ohm's Law is \(I=\frac{V}{R}\), where \(I\) is current, \(V\) is voltage, and \(R\) is resistance.

Step2: Substitute values

Given \(V = 120\space V\) and \(R=20\space\Omega\). Substitute into the formula: \(I=\frac{120}{20}\).

Step3: Calculate the current

\(I = 6\space A\).

Answer:

\(6\)
