Find the current passing through a circuit consisting of a battery and one resistor. the resistor has a resistance of 2 ohms and the battery has a voltage of 12 volts. a) 0.167 amps b) 2 amps c) 6 amps d) 8 amps

The current flowing in the circuit can be found by applying Ohm's law:

where
V is the voltage of the battery
I is the current flowing in the circuit
R is the resistance of the circuit

In our problem, V=12 V and , so if we re-arrange the previous equation and we use these data, we find the current in the circuit:


Therefore the correct answer is C).
