MichaelMet · Answer

Answer: 0.5A

Explanation:

According to Ohm’s law, the Voltage(V) when a current flows through a resistor can be calculated by using the formula:

V = IR

where,

V = Voltage = 200V

I = current in amps (A)

R = resistance in ohms (Ω) = 400Ω

Current = Voltage / Resistance

I = V/R

I = 200/400

I = 0.5A

Therefore, the current is 0.5 Ampere
