A potential difference of 30 V is applied across a 10 ohm resistor. What current flows?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. 3 A

  1. Step 1: Ohm's law: I = V / R.
  2. Step 2: 30 / 10 = 3 A.
Answer
3 A.
Why not the others: 300 A: voltage and resistance were multiplied. 0.333 A: resistance was divided by voltage. 20 A: resistance was subtracted from voltage.
