Question

if your toaster is supplied with 120 volts and draws 15 amps of current, what is its resistance? select one: a. 0.125 ohms b. 1800 ohms c. 8 ohms d. 135 ohms

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Ohm's Law

Ohm's Law: $R = \frac{V}{I}$, where $V=120$ V, $I=15$ A.

Step2: Calculate resistance

$R = \frac{120}{15} = 8$ Ohms.

Answer:

c. 8 Ohms
