Q
Q: If a circuit has a current of 2A flowing through a 5Ω resistor, what is the power dissipated by the resistor?
Solution:
Power (P) = I^2 * R = (2^2) * 5 = 4 * 5 = 20W.
Steps: 7
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the current (I) flowing through the resistor. In this case, I = 2A.
Step 2: Identify the resistance (R) of the resistor. Here, R = 5Ω.
Step 3: Use the formula for power (P) dissipated by a resistor, which is P = I^2 * R.
Step 4: Substitute the values into the formula: P = (2A)^2 * 5Ω.
Step 5: Calculate (2A)^2, which is 4A^2.
Step 6: Multiply 4A^2 by 5Ω to find the power: 4 * 5 = 20W.
Step 7: Conclude that the power dissipated by the resistor is 20W.
