If the resistance of an electric circuit is 12 ohms and the voltage in the circuit is 60 v, the current flowing through the circuit is

a. 0.2 a.
b. 720 a.
c. 5 a.
d. 60 a.

Answer

The current of the circuit is 5 A.

Option (C) is correct .

Explanation :

The relationship between the current , voltage and resistance is given by .

Where I is current , V is voltage and R is resistance .

As given

If the resistance of an electric circuit is 12 ohms and the voltage in the circuit is 60 V .

R = 12 ohms

V = 60 V

Putting the values

I = 5 A

Therefore the current of the circuit is 5 A .

Option (C) is correct .
