while calculating current voltage is 3v and resistance is 6000 and answer is given as 500e-6 instead of .5 mA. Can u pls help me out.

Question

in the above question how is the conversion taking place?

Answer 1

Assuming the units of resistance are ohms,

 

I = V/R = (3 v)/(6000 Ω) = 5 x 10^-4 A = 0.5 x 10^-3 A = 0.5 mA = 500 x 10^-6 A = 500 microamps

 

They are the same.
