Step 1
We are given that the current is $0.01$ A and the voltage is $8$ V. We can rearrange the formula to solve for the resistance: $R = \frac{V}{I}$. Now, we can plug in the given values: $R = \frac{8}{0.01} = 800$ Ohms. Show more…

In an electrical circuit, the voltage across a resistor is directly proportional to the current running through the resistor. If a current of 12 amps produced 480 volts across a resistor, how many volts would a current of 1.5 amps produce across an identical resistor?
