Question 9

A battery is connected to a resistor. A student measures the potential difference (p.d.) across the resistor, the current in the circuit, and the resistance of the resistor. Which option shows all three values with their correct units?

A

p.d. is 12 V12\text{ V}12 V, current is 2.0 Ω2.0\ \Omega2.0 Ω, resistance is 6.0 A6.0\text{ A}6.0 A

B

p.d. is 12 Ω12\ \Omega12 Ω, current is 2.0 A2.0\text{ A}2.0 A, resistance is 6.0 V6.0\text{ V}6.0 V

C

p.d. is 12 V12\text{ V}12 V, current is 2.0 A2.0\text{ A}2.0 A, resistance is 6.0 Ω6.0\ \Omega6.0 Ω

D

p.d. is 12 A12\text{ A}12 A, current is 2.0 V2.0\text{ V}2.0 V, resistance is 6.0 Ω6.0\ \Omega6.0 Ω
