The current it conduct when it is plugged into a wall outlet that provides 120 V is 10.4A

Ohms law

The current passing through a conductor is proportional to the potential difference. Mathematically;

V = IR
where
V is the voltage = 120V

R is the resistance = 11.5 ohms

Required

Current I

Substitute

I = V/R
I = 120/11.5
I = 10.4A

Hence  the current it conduct when it is plugged into a wall outlet that provides 120 V is 10.4A
