30 volts
30 volts
Resistance
20 ohms
100 ohms
200 ohms
Current:

Answer 1

To calculate the current in the circuit, we can use Ohm's Law, which states:

Current (I) = Voltage (V) / Resistance (R)

For the given combinations:

1) Voltage = 30 volts, Resistance = 20 ohms
Current = 30 volts / 20 ohms = 1.5 amperes

2) Voltage = 30 volts, Resistance = 100 ohms
Current = 30 volts / 100 ohms = 0.3 amperes

3) Voltage = 30 volts, Resistance = 200 ohms
Current = 30 volts / 200 ohms = 0.15 amperes

Therefore, the currents in the circuit for the given resistor and voltage combinations are as follows:
1) 1.5 amperes
2) 0.3 amperes
3) 0.15 amperes
