What is the voltage across a 2-ohm resistor if a current of 0.5 amperes flows through it?

  1. A 2.5 volts
  2. B 1.5 volts
  3. C 1.0 volts
  4. D 0.25 volts

Correct answer: C — 1.0 volts. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

To find the voltage across a resistor, you multiply the current flowing through it by its resistance. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
