Resistance of the resistor

The resistor terminals have a voltage of 20 V and a current of 5 mA is passed through. What is the resistance of the resistor?

Result

R =  4000 Ω

Solution:

U=20 V I=5/1000=1200=0.005 A R=U/I=20/0.005=4000=4000 ΩU=20 \ \text{V} \ \\ I=5 / 1000=\dfrac{ 1 }{ 200 }=0.005 \ \text{A} \ \\ R=U/I=20/0.005=4000=4000 \ Ω
