A current of 5 A flowing in a resistor of value 10 kΩ (kilohms) produces what voltage drop?

Question

A current of 5 A flowing in a resistor of value 10 kΩ (kilohms) produces what voltage drop?

Answer 1

The formula for calculating voltage is E = I * R

A 5 A current times a 10k ohm resistor equates to a 50,000 volt drop.

Answer 2

voltage drop = current * resistance.

              = 5 * 10000 = 50000 volts

so, the voltage drop is 50000 volts

Answer 3

The numerical answer is 5 A x 10^4 ohms = 50,000 V. But the physical situation is unrealistic because the power dissipation would be I^2 R = 250 kW.

You don't give enough information.
