Answer:

5000 volts

Explanation:

we know v×IR so voltage equals current*resistance so 50*100 so 5000

Answer:

about 70.7 V

Explanation:

The relation between power and voltage and resistance in a resistive circuit is ...

P = V^2/R

so ...

V = √(PR)

V = √(100·50) = √5000

V ≈ 70.7 . . . . volts
