Using Ohm's Law, find V when the current I =1.2 milliamps and R = 5.8 Kilohms

Ohm's Law states that the voltage (V) across a resistor is equal to the current (I) flowing through it times the resistance (R) of the resistor. This is given by the formula:

V = I * R

Given that I = 1.2 milliamps and R = 5.8 kilohms, we can substitute these values into the formula. However, we need to ensure that the units are consistent.

1 milliamp = 0.001 amps, so 1.2 milliamps = 1.2 * 0.001 = 0.0012 amps. 1 kilohm = 1000 ohms, so 5.8 kilohms = 5.8 * 1000 = 5800 ohms.

Substituting these values into the formula gives:

V = 0.0012 * 5800

Calculating this gives:

V = 6.96 volts

So, the voltage V is 6.96 volts.
