  • Question
  • If four 90 Ω resistors are connected in series across an 18 V source, the current equals ___.


  • Options
  • A. 50 mA
  • B. 0.2 A
  • C. 5 A
  • D. 20 A

  • Correct Answer
  • 50 mA 

    Explanation
    By Ohm's law, V = IR.
    
    I = V/R
    
    Given, Four 90 ohm resisters in series. 
    
    So, R = ( R1 + R2 + R3 + R4) = 4 x 90 = 360 ohms.
    
    Therefore, I = 18/360 = 0.05 A [or] 50 milli amps.
