Q. If a circuit has a total power of 100 watts and operates at 10 volts, what is the current?
A.
10 A
B.
5 A
C.
15 A
D.
20 A
Show solution
Solution
Using the power formula P = V * I, we can rearrange it to find I = P / V. Thus, I = 100 W / 10 V = 10 A.
Correct Answer:
B
— 5 A

Q. In a DC circuit, if the voltage is doubled and the resistance remains constant, what happens to the current?
A.
It doubles
B.
It halves
C.
It remains the same
D.
It quadruples
Show solution
Solution
According to Ohm's Law (V = I * R), if voltage (V) is doubled and resistance (R) is constant, the current (I) must also double.

Q. In an AC circuit, what is the impedance if the resistance is 4 ohms and the reactance is 3 ohms?
A.
5 ohms
B.
7 ohms
C.
1 ohm
D.
