Ohm's Law
Ohm's Law is the fundamental relationship between voltage, current, and resistance:
* V = I * R
Where:
* V is voltage (in volts)
* I is current (in amperes, or amps)
* R is resistance (in ohms)
Calculation
1. Identify the values:
* V = 12 VDC
* R = 1000 ohms (1K-ohm)
2. Rearrange the formula to solve for current (I):
* I = V / R
3. Substitute the values and calculate:
* I = 12 V / 1000 ohms
* I = 0.012 amps
Answer:
The current flowing in the circuit will be 0.012 amps or 12 milliamps (mA).
