In a parallel circuit, a 50 ohm hairdryer has 2.4 amps of current flowing through it.
how much current is flowing through a light bulb which is in parallel with the
hairdryer?

Respuesta :

The current flowing through a light bulb which is in parallel with the

hairdryer is 10 A.

What is current?

The current is the stream of charges which flow inside the conductors when connected across the end of voltage.

In a parallel circuit, a 50 ohm hairdryer has 2.4 amps of current flowing through it.

So, I = 2.4 A and R = 50 ohm

From the Ohm's law,

V =IR

By substituting the values, we get

V = 2.4 x 50

V =120 Volts

Let the power of the lamp is 12 Watt.

The power related to the voltage and current as

P = VI

12 = 120 x I

I = 10 A

Thus, the current flowing through a light bulb  is 10 A.
