(12.1)
I = E/R
Example 12.1
In a 24-V DC circuit, the flow of current is measured as 8 A. What is
the resistance of this circuit?
Solution
From Equation (12.1) , R = E/I = 24/8 = 3ohms.
Example 12.2
What is the current flow in a 12-V DC circuit containing a total
resistance of 2 ohms?
Solution
From Equation (12.1) , I = E/R = 12/2 = 6A.
