a flashlight bulb with a potential difference of 6.0 v across it has a resistance of 8.0 how much current is the bulb filament

I = 0.75 Amp

Explanation:

Ohm's Law

Ohm's law states that the current (I) through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage (V) across the two points. The constant of proportionality is called the Resistance (R) of the conductor.

The formula can be expressed as:

V = I.R

The intensity of the current through a resistor can be calculated by solving the equation for I:

A flashlight bulb is an example of a resistor with the specific task to emit light when it's hot enough.

The potential difference (or voltage) is V=6 V and the resistance is R=8Ω, thus the current is:

I = 0.75 Amp
