Question

Calculate the resistance of a conductor of the current flowing through it is 200ma

Answer 1

Answer:

The resistance of the conductor is 4 ohm

Explanation:

Calculate the resistance of a resistor if the current flowing through it is 200mA and the applied potential difference is 0.8 V

According to the statement of the question:

Given data:

Voltage (V) = 0.8V

Current (I) = 200 mA = 200/10^3 = 2/10

Resistance = ?

The formula to calculate resistance is:

Resistance = Voltage / Current

Voltage = Current × Resistance

0.8 = 2/10 × Resistance

0.8×10/2 = Resistance

8/2 = Resistance

Resistance = 4 ohm

Thus the resistance of the conductor is 4 ohm
