How much power is produced if a voltage of #10 V# is applied to a circuit with a resistance of #96 Omega#?

Answer 1

#"Power" = 100/96 = 50/48 = 25/24"Watts"#

#"Power" = "Voltage"*"Current"# #"Power"# is measured in Watts #"Voltage"# is measured in Volts #"Current"# is measured in Amperes.

We want the #"Power"#, we have the #"Voltage"# and the #"Resistance"#, but we do not have the #"Current"#. So, we can find the #"Current"# or just replace it through the #"Resistance"# formula:

#"Resistance" = "Voltage"/"Current"# #96Omega = (10V)/"Current" => "Current" = (10V)/(96Omega)#

Now, apply in the #"Power"# formula: #"Power" = 10 * 10/96# #"Power" = 100/96 = 50/48 = 25/24"Watts"#

The power produced in the circuit can be calculated using the formula:

Power = (Voltage)^2 / Resistance

Substituting the given values:

Power = (10 V)^2 / 96 Ω Power = (100 V^2) / 96 Ω Power ≈ 1.042 W

Therefore, approximately 1.042 watts of power is produced in the circuit.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
