Question

What is the voltage drop across the 20 Ohm resistor?

Choose one • 5 points

-3.00 V


-4.50 V


-6.00 V


-9.00 V

Answer 1

To determine the voltage drop across a 20 Ohm resistor, we need additional information such as the current flowing through it or the overall circuit configuration (like total voltage or resistor values in series or parallel). However, since that information is not provided, I can guide you through the process of calculating it given a current (I).

According to Ohm's Law, the voltage drop (V) across a resistor is calculated as:

\[ V = I \times R \]

where:
- \( V \) is the voltage drop,
- \( I \) is the current through the resistor, and
- \( R \) is the resistance in ohms.

If you have a current value, you can substitute it into the equation along with the resistor value (20 Ohms) to find the voltage drop.

If you provide the current or any additional circuit details, I can help with a more specific calculation. Otherwise, among the options given (-3.00 V, -4.50 V, -6.00 V, -9.00 V), it is not possible to determine the correct answer without more information.
