Answer:


\boxed{\sf Power \ in \ the \ circuit = 14.4 \ kW}

Given:

Current (I) = 12 A

Resistance (R) = 100 Ω

To Find:

Power (P) in the circuit

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:


\boxed{ \bold{P = I^2 R}}

Substituting value of I & R in the equation:


\sf \implies P = {(12)}^(2) * 100 \\ \\ \sf \implies P = 144 * 100 \\ \\ \sf \implies P = 14400 \: A^2.\Omega \\ \\ \sf \implies P = 14400 \: W \\ \\ \sf \implies P = 14.4 \: kW


\therefore

Power (P) in the circuit = 14.4 kW
