Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If a circuit has a current of 3 A and a resistance of 4 Ω, what is the power consumed? (2020)
  • Step 1: Identify the formula for power (P) in a circuit, which is P = I² × R.
  • Step 2: Note the given values: current (I) is 3 A and resistance (R) is 4 Ω.
  • Step 3: Substitute the current value into the formula: P = (3 A)² × 4 Ω.
  • Step 4: Calculate (3 A)², which is 9 A².
  • Step 5: Multiply 9 A² by 4 Ω to find the power: 9 A² × 4 Ω = 36 W.
  • Step 6: The power consumed in the circuit is 36 W.
  • Ohm's Law and Power Calculation – Understanding the relationship between current, resistance, and power in electrical circuits.
