In a circuit, a variable resistor is to be connected across a potential difference of 60 volts to allow the current to be adjusted in the range from 40 milliamperes to 100 milliamperes.
A variable resistor is a device in which the resistance can be varied.
mA = milliamperes, or 10-3 amperes
Over what range must the resistance vary?

plz help :')

Answer:

600 and 1500 [ohm

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use ohm's law, which tells us that the voltage is the product of the current by the resistance, so we have:

V = I*R

where:

V = voltage [V]

I = current [amp]

R = resistance [ohm]

Therefore:

R = V/I

R1 = 60/(40*10^-3) = 1500 [ohm]

R2 = 60/(100*10^-3) = 600 [ohm]

So the resistance should be among 600 and 1500 [ohm]
