Given:
The battery voltage, V=200 V
The current through the resistor, I=50000 mA=50000×10⁻³ A
To find:
The resistance of the resistor.
Explanation:
From Ohm's law, the voltage across a circuit is directly proportional to the current through the circuit.
Thus the voltage across the resistor is given by,
[tex]V=IR[/tex]On substituting the known values in the above equation,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 200=50000\times10^{-3}\times R \\ \Rightarrow R=\frac{200}{50000\times10^{-3}} \\ =4\text{ }\Omega \end{gathered}[/tex]Final answer:
The resistance of the resistor is 4 Ω
