Question

1. what is the voltage produced by a 180 amp current flowing through a resistance of 0.5 ohms?

a. 90 v
b. 90 amps
c. 360 v
d. 360 amps

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Ohm's Law

Ohm's Law states that \( V = I \times R \), where \( V \) is voltage, \( I \) is current, and \( R \) is resistance.

Step2: Substitute the given values

We are given \( I = 180 \) amp (current) and \( R = 0.5 \) ohms (resistance). Substituting these into the formula: \( V = 180 \times 0.5 \).

Step3: Calculate the result

\( 180 \times 0.5 = 90 \) volts. Also, note that the units for voltage is volts (V) and for current is amps (A), so options with amps as units for voltage (B and D) are incorrect. Option C gives 360 V which is incorrect as per calculation.

Answer:

A. 90 V
