Homework Statement
What is the current in a 46 kilo ohm resistor with 150V across it?
Given : 46 Kilo ohms
150 V
Answers has to be in Amperes
Homework Equations
Use Ohm's Law R = (V/I)
The Attempt at a Solution
I converted the kilo ohms back to ohms so 46 * 10 ^ 3 is 46,000 ohms. Divide 150 by 46,000 ohms and I get .003 as the answer. This answer is absurd but I converted the kilo ohms to ohms. I don't see where I went wrong. Seems like an easy question. =/
