To find the resistance of the conductor when a battery of 20 V is connected across it and a current of 100 A flows through it, we can use Ohm's Law. Ohm's Law states that the voltage (V) across a conductor is equal to the current (I) flowing through it multiplied by the resistance (R) of the conductor. The formula is given by: \[ V = I \times R \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Voltage (V) = 20 V ...
