Ohm's Law
Ohm's Law states the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R):
* V = I * R
Solving for Current (I)
To find the current, we can rearrange the formula:
* I = V / R
Calculations
* V = 6 volts
* R = 400 ohms
* I = 6 volts / 400 ohms
* I = 0.015 amperes (or 15 milliamperes)
Answer: The current through the 400 ohm resistor is 0.015 amperes or 15 milliamperes.
