To find the voltage applied to the circuit, you can use Ohm's Law, which states:
\[ V = I \times R \]
where:
- \( V \) is the voltage,
- \( I \) is the current (in amperes),
- \( R \) is the resistance (in ohms).
Given:
- Current, \( I = 3.6 \, \text{A} \)
- Resistance, \( R = 5.0 \, \Omega \)
Now, substituting the given values into the formula:
\[ V = 3.6 \, \text{A} \times 5.0 \, \Omega = 18 \, \text{V} \]
So, the voltage applied to the circuit is **18 V**.
\[ V = I \times R \]
where:
- \( V \) is the voltage,
- \( I \) is the current (in amperes),
- \( R \) is the resistance (in ohms).
Given:
- Current, \( I = 3.6 \, \text{A} \)
- Resistance, \( R = 5.0 \, \Omega \)
Now, substituting the given values into the formula:
\[ V = 3.6 \, \text{A} \times 5.0 \, \Omega = 18 \, \text{V} \]
So, the voltage applied to the circuit is **18 V**.
