- Q2. Find the voltage through the resistor
- Ans.
To find the voltage through a resistor, use Ohm's Law: V = I * R
Use Ohm's Law: V = I * R, where V is the voltage, I is the current flowing through the resistor, and R is the resistance of the resistor
If the current flowing through the resistor is 2A and the resistance is 5 ohms, the voltage would be V = 2 * 5 = 10V
Make sure to use the correct units for current (Amps) and resistance (Ohms) to get the voltage in Volts
