Answer:
d. 12 A
Explanation:
The current and the voltage in a resistor are related by Ohm's Law:
[tex]V=IR[/tex]
where
V is the potential difference across the resistor
I is the current in the resistor
R is the resistance
In this problem, we have
[tex]V=120 V[/tex] is the potential difference across the resistor
[tex]R=10\Omega[/tex] is the resistance
Solving the equation for I, we find the current:
[tex]I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{120 V}{10 \Omega}=12 A[/tex]
