225 = 1/2 (50) (v2)
225 = 25 (v2)
225/25 = v2
9 = v2
√9 = v
v = 3 m/s
I think this is shown in the fine print on the second sheet . . .
The question starts out by saying that the scale uses <u>two</u> 3V cells <u>in series</u>.
That makes the total battery voltage 6 volts.
0.12 milliamperes = 0.00012 Amperes.
Resistance = (voltage) / (current in Amperes).
Resistance = 6 / 0.00012 = 50,000 Ω
