P=IE

What voltage (E) will be dropped across the resistor? Current (I) = .090 A

Assuming 90 VAC dropped across the resistor, then P=90 x .090 which = 8.1 Watts.

How much power is consumed through a 3 amp?

-- If the 3 Amp is being drawn from a battery,then the battery is supplying3 x (Voltage of the battery) watts.-- If the 3 Amp is flowing through a resistor,then the resistor is dissipating9 x (Resistance of the resistor) watts.


What is s device that interferes with the flow of an electrical charge?

You cannot 'slow' the flow of current in a wire. What you can do, however, is to reduce its value, or to limit its upper value. The device that will do this is a resistor. If, by your question, you are asking how to reduce the rate of change in its magnitude, then you can use an inductor.


How current passes through resistor.?

What is the current running through resistor four?1 amps..!What is the current running through resistor one? 3 amps...!What is the current running through resistor three? 2amps..!What is the current running through resistor five? 3 amps..!What is the voltage drop running through resistor five? 45 volts...!What is the equivalent resistance through the parallel portion of the circuit? 6 ohmsAnswerA resistor is a conductor, albeit one with a higher resistance than a length of wire, so current passes through it without any problem. The magnitude of the current will, of course, be somewhat lower because of the additional resistance.


What circumstances is it possible for the rms current drawn from a certain source to have the same magnitude when an inductance is connected in series with a given impedance?

The same as what? when an inductor is connected in series with a resistor and a current passed through them, the voltages across the resistor and inductor are equal when the reactance is equal to the resistance: 2.pi.f.L = R

Resistor value is defined by the Resistance the resistor offers in Kilo ohms/ohms value given by color codes on the resistor.


What is the difference between an ohmic resistor and a non-ohmic resistor?

A non-ohmic resistor doesn't have a constant resistance. A ohmic resistor has a constant resistance.


How do you find the current going into a resistor?

You can find the current by using an ammeter. The cheapest way (although more invasive) is to use a probe type ammeter or multimeter. To use, you need to insert the meter in the current path of the resistor (in series with the resistor). These meters are fairly cheap - as low as $8 if you shop around. If it is not feasible to break the circuit and insert the meter, and you have room around a wire going to the resistor, you could use a clamp on ammeter as well. These are typically more expensive. If you understand resistor codes, you can also use a volt meter/multimeter to measure the voltage drop across the resistor (put the probe in parallel with the resistor). The current should be equivalent to I = V / R. If you don't know resistor codes, do an online search to match colors with numbers. There should be three stripes. The first two are the resistance and the third is a magnitude. For example, if the first color matches the number 1, and the second matches 8, and the third matches 3, then this is a 18 x 1000 = 1.8k ohm resistor.
