Question

A

resistor is connected to a 9 V battery and dissipates 15 W ofpower.
What is theresistance of the resistor?

Answer 1

R= 5.4 ohms

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

V= 9 V

Power ,P= 15 W

Lets take resistor resistance = R

We know that Power given as

`P=(V^2)/(R)`

V=Voltage

P=Power

R=Resistance

`R=(V^2)/(P)`

Now by putting the all the values in the above equation

`R=(9^2)/(15)`

R= 5.4 ohms

Therefore the resistance of the resister will be 5.4 ohms.
