An automation system monitors the electrical current drawn by a bank of identical solenoid valves connected in parallel. The operating potential difference across the parallel network is maintained at a constant value. The table below displays the measurements recorded during a calibration test:
| Number of active valves | Total current in mA | Potential difference in V |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 24.0 | 18.00 |
| 2 | 48.0 | 18.00 |
| 3 | 72.0 | 18.00 |
| 4 | 96.0 | 18.00 |
Using data from the table, calculate the electrical resistance of only 1 solenoid valve.
