Answer:

How do I calculate voltage drop?

To calculate voltage drop, E, across a component, you need to know the resistance of the component and the current thru it. Ohm's Law is E=I⋅R , which tells us to then multiply I by R . E is the voltage across the component also known as voltage drop

Step-by-step explanation:
