When a 12 V battery is connected across ...

When a `12 V` battery is connected across an unknown resistor, there is a current of `2.5 mA` in the circuit. Find the value of the resistance of the resistor.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the value of the resistance of the unknown resistor when a `12 V` battery is connected across it and a current of `2.5 mA` flows through the circuit, we can use Ohm's Law. Ohm's Law states that: \[ V = I \times R \] Where: - \( V \) is the voltage (in volts), - \( I \) is the current (in amperes), - \( R \) is the resistance (in ohms). ...
