    1. This document provides introductory questions on electrical resistance including: converting resistance values between ohms and kilohms, calculating resistance from voltage and current, and calculating current from resistance and voltage. 2. Questions include calculating the resistance of a lamp given its voltage and current, the current through a lamp given its resistance and voltage, and the resistance of a wire given its current and voltage. 3. The final question calculates the maximum current that can be drawn from a high voltage supply protected by a resistor.

    TAP 108- 2: Introductory questions on resistance

    1. (a) (b) 2. Convert the following: 12 500 to k 0.025 k to A 240 V lamp draws a current of 0.50 A from the mains supply. What is the resistance of the lamp? What current flows through a 12 V lamp when its filament has a resistance of 100 ? Give your answer in amps and milliamps. A current of 4.0 mA flows through a fine piece of resistance wire when the potential difference across it is 8.0 V. What is the resistance of the wire? A 5000 V EHT supply is protected by a 5 mega-ohm (5 M) resistor in series with its positive terminal. What is the maximum current that can be drawn from this supply if its terminals are shorted? (Ignore its internal resistance)
