Q
Q: If a circuit has a current of 3 A and a resistance of 4 ohms, what is the power consumed? (2020)
Solution:
Power (P) is calculated using P = I^2 * R = (3 A)^2 * 4 ohms = 12 W.
Steps: 7
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the formula for power (P) in a circuit, which is P = I^2 * R.
Step 2: Identify the current (I) given in the problem, which is 3 A.
Step 3: Identify the resistance (R) given in the problem, which is 4 ohms.
Step 4: Substitute the current (I) into the formula: P = (3 A)^2 * R.
Step 5: Calculate (3 A)^2, which is 9 A^2.
Step 6: Multiply 9 A^2 by the resistance (4 ohms): 9 A^2 * 4 ohms = 36 W.
Step 7: The power consumed in the circuit is 36 W.
