Question

What formula is used to calculate resistance in a circuit?

Answer Options

  • A) R = E x I
  • B) R = E / I
  • C) R = E + I
  • D) R = E – I

Correct Answer: B


Explanation

This is the third and final form of Ohm’s Law. To calculate resistance (\text{R}) in a circuit, you divide the voltage (\text{E}) by the current (\text{I}): R = E / I.

This formula allows you to determine the unknown resistance of a component or load if you can measure the voltage applied across it and the current flowing into it.
