When 5.00 A is flowing through an 10.0-Ω device, how much power is being dissipated in the device?
A) 250 W
B) 50.0 W
C) 500 W
D) 2.50 kW

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The power dissipated in a device can be calculated using the formula P = I^2 * R, where P is power in watts, I is current in amperes, and R is resistance in ohms. Substituting the given values, P = (5.00 A)^2 * 10.0 Ω = 25 * 10.0 = 250 W.
