Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Ohm's Law

$V = IR$ (where $V$ is voltage, $I$ is current, $R$ is resistance).

Step2: Convert current to SI - unit

The current $I = 50\ mA=50\times10^{- 3}\ A$, and the resistance $R = 0.1\ \Omega$.

Step3: Calculate the voltage

$V=I\times R=(50\times10^{-3}\ A)\times(0.1\ \Omega)=5\times10^{-3}\ V = 5\ mV$.

Answer:

5 mV
