Electrical quantities — practice question

The diagram illustrates a circuit designed to regulate the potential difference (p.d.) across a lamp. The variable resistor is altered until the p.d. across the lamp reaches $6.0\,\text{V}$. The current through the lamp is $0.5\,\text{A}$. What is the resistance of the lamp?

  • A$0.083\,\Omega$
  • B$3.0\,\Omega$
  • C$6.5\,\Omega$
  • D$12.0\,\Omega$
