Question

What would the circuit resistance be if a 7.5 Amp draw was present with the engine running and the charging system producing 15 Volts?

Answer 1

2 ohms

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Ohm's law states that
`V=IR` where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance.

Plug in the given information (I=7.5, V=15) and solve for R

`V=IR\\15=(7.5)R`

Divide both sides by 7.5 to isolate R

`(15)/(7.5)= (7.5R)/(7.5) \\2=R`

Therefore, the circuit resistance would be 2 ohms.

I hope this helps!
