When a load is connected to a voltage divider, the load draws current and changes the effective resistance of the divider. This causes the output voltage to drop below its no-load value of 12 V. This effect is known as loading.
The output of a certain voltage divider is 12 V with no load. When a load is connected, the output voltage
