According to ohms law.

V = IxR.
R= V/I.

So data given.

V = 12V.
I = 3.6 mA.

R = V/I.

= 12/(3.6*10^-3).

= 12*10^3/3.6. (Here denominator 10^-3 shifted to numerator i.e 10^3).

= 12000/3.6.

= 3.3 kilo ohms.

Ohm's Law :- V = I*R

But here we adjust the terms as,
R = V/I
= 12/3.6 * 10^-3 ...(^ sign is POWER )
= (12/3.6)* 10^3 ...(shifting of 10^-3)
= 3.3 * 10^3
R = 3.3 kilo-ohm

Over formula is suitable for only in Ohms Volts Amps. So we should be convert mA to Amps.(3.6MA = 3600A).

R = V/I.

= 12/3600.

= 0.0033ohms (0.0033ohms = 3.33 kohms).

= 3.3 kohms.

As we know that v = ir.
According to ohm's law.
So, R = V/I.

Substitute those values in the above equation.
we get, 12/10powerten(-3) = 3.3kiloohms.

All comments which are given above is totally wrong because ohms law given by them is totally wrong. i is directly proportional to v.

ACCORDING TO OHM'S LAW,
R(resistance)=V(voltage)/I(current)
=12/3.6
=3.33 kilo-ohm

@Jayadhar you are right,

Because of Temperature is constant And
According to OHM's law,

V = RI.

R = 3.3 k ohm's.

I=V/R
V=12V
I=3.6mA=3.6*10^-3
R=V/I
R=(12/36*10^-4)Ohm
=(1/3)*10^4ohm
=0.333*10^4ohm
=3.33*10^3ohm
=3.33kilo-ohm

Jayadhar said:   1 decade ago
Assuming Temperature is constant, By OHM'S law,

V = RI.

hence; R= V/I.

R = 12/36000.

R = 3333.3333 ohms.
