The power delivered to an antenna is 500 watt. The effective antenna resistance is 20 ohm. The antenna current is:

  a.   25 amp

  b.   2.5 amp

  c.   10 amp

  d.   5 amp
Your answer "d" is CORRECT!

P = I squared x R
therefore I = the square root of (P / R)
= the square root of (500 / 20)
= the square root of (25)
= 5 amps.
