Based on Ohm's law, the relation between the current, voltage and resistance can be described using the following equation:
Voltage = Current * Resistance

We are given that:
Current = 25 amperes
Resistance = 14 ohms

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the voltage as follows:
Voltage = 25 * 14 = 350 volts
