Question
Which is equal to 3000 milliamperes?
Answer Options
- A) 0.003 amperes
- B) 0.3 amperes
- C) 3 amperes
- D) 3,000,000 amperes
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
To convert milliamperes (\text{mA}) to amperes (\text{A}), you divide by 1,000.
3000\text{ mA} / 1000\text{ mA/A} = 3\text{ amperes}. This amount of current (3\text{ A}) is a typical current draw for a small, handheld radio transmitting at its high power setting, or a small home stereo amplifier.
