If I have a 9v 200mAh battery. and I put a 10-Ohm resistor on it:
1.) does the current get divided by the 10:
200mAh / 10-Ohm = 20mAh :thinking:
2.) Does anything happen to the voltage? or does it stay at 9v?
3.) With does the 10k-Ohm resistor mean? I don't understand what the 'k' is:thinking:
4.) If I want to get MAX brightness out of an LED, even if the life is decreased a bit, What resistor should I use?
LED Specs:
3v max
20mAh max
Thanks for any help, Electricity is confusing (to me)
