Answer:

40 Ω

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Potential difference (V) = 20 V

Current (I) = 0.50 A

Resistance (R) =?

From ohm’s law:

V = IR

Where:

V is the potential difference.

I is the current.

R is the resistance.

With the above formula, we can obtain the resistance of the resistor as follow:

Potential difference (V) = 20 V

Current (I) = 0.50 A

Resistance (R) =?

V = IR

20 = 0.5 × R

Divide both side by 0.5

R = 20/0.5

R = 40 Ω

Therefore, the resistance of the resistor is 40 Ω
