The current is #=4A#

Explanation:

Apply Ohm's Law

#"voltage (V) "= "Current (A)" xx "Resiatance "(Omega)#

#U=RI#

The voltage is #U=24V#

The resistance is #R=6 Omega#

The current is

#I=U/R=24/6=4A#

#4# amperes

Explanation:

We use Ohm's law, which states that,

#V=IR#

where:

  • #V# is the voltage in volts

  • #I# is the current in amperes

  • #R# is the resistance in ohms

So, we get:

#I=V/R#

#=(24 \ "V")/(6 \ Omega)#

#=4 \ "A"#
