A voltage of 75 V is placed across a 150 Ω resistor. What is the current through the resistor?

0.5 A

Explanation:

Applying,

V = IR Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = Resistance.

make I the subject of the equation

I = V/R Equation 2

From the question,

Given: V = 75 V, R = 150 Ω

Substitute these values into equation 2

I = 75/150

I = 0.5 A.

Hence the cuurent through the resistor is 0.5 A

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.

cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.
