Assuming DC and resistive loads, resistance equals voltage across the load, divided by the current through it. In this case 120/10 or 12 ohms.

resistance=10ohm,
voltage=120v,
current=?,

I=V/R Amp,
=120/10,
=12 A.

12 A of current flows in the circuit.

How many ohms is a 120 volts?

"Volts" is electrical pressure applied to a circuit; whereas, "ohms" is electrical resistance to that pressure. One cannot determine ohms from voltage without knowing either the current (in "amps") or power (in "watts"). A normal 120V household circuit can handle a maximum of 20 amps, so using ohm's law of resistance = voltage / current, the minimum resistance required in a 120V household circuit would be 6 ohms. Any less than 6 ohms will cause the circuit breaker to trip.


An electric heating element has a resistance of 16ohm and is connected to a voltage of 120v How much current will flow in the circuit?

Ohms law states that E=I * R, or voltage equals current times resistance. Therefore current equals voltage divided by resistance. 120v divided by 16 ohms equals 7.5 amps.


What would happen to circuit if there was no resistance?

a circuit with no resistance or zero resistance can be considered as open circuit in which the current is zero. without resistance the circuit just becomes open ()

Is the increase in voltage causes a greater electric resistance in a circuit?

No, the resistance in a circuit does not change when voltage changes. Resistance is an inherent property of the circuit.


How many amps IS 60hz in 120 volts?

To calculate amperage using Ohm's Law (I = V/R), you need to know the resistance (R). In this case, with a voltage of 120V and frequency of 60Hz, you can't determine amperage without knowing the resistance of the circuit.


In a 120V 24A circuit what amp fuse is needed to protect it?

A 30A fuse would be appropriate to protect a 120V 24A circuit, as fuses are typically chosen to be slightly higher than the circuit load to prevent nuisance tripping.


How is the total resistance in a series circuit is determined?

The total resistance in a series circuit is determined by adding (summing) the individual resistances of each component in the circuit.
