Hello!

An electric appliance draws 1.5 amperes of current when it is connected to a 24-volt source. What is the resistance of this appliance ?

Data:  

i (current) = 1.5 amperes

R (resistance) = ? (in Ω - Ohm)  

V (voltage) = 24 volts  

Formula:

[tex]V = R*i\to\boxed{ R = \dfrac{V}{i}}[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]R = \dfrac{V}{i}[/tex]

[tex]R = \dfrac{24}{1.5}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\boxed{R = 16\:\Omega}}\Longleftarrow(resistance)\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark[/tex]

Answer:

The resistance is 16 Ohm
