Question

A 200 ohm resistor has a 2-ma current in it. what is the voltage across the resistor?

Answer 1

Answer:

V=4v

Explanation:

To perform this operation, we will refer to Ohm's Law. This Law relates the terms current, voltage and resistance.

The current intensity that passes through a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage or voltage of the circuit and inversely proportional to the resistance it presents.

$I=\frac{v}{r}$

Where

I=Current

V= Voltage

R=Resistance.

So, in this case:

R=200 ohm

I= 2mA  = 0.002 A

V= searched variable

$V=r*I$

$V=(200ohm)(0.002A)=4V$
