Take your pick:
P = V x I (Power = Voltage x Current)
or:
P = V2 / R (Power = Voltage2 / Resistance)
or:
P = I2 *R (Power = Current2 x Resistance)
(the last two equations come from combining the ohms law equation R=V/I with the power equation P=VxI)
In the question above you have resistance and voltage therefore:
P = V2 / R = 92 / 900 = 0.090W = 90mW
(i believe 0.125W is the smallest resistor you can get)
hope that helps

What is the power dissipated by a 10 ohm resistor with 20 volts supply?
A 10 ohm resistor across a 20 volt source has 2 amps flowing through it. A 20 volt source providing 2 amps is producing 40 watts. Voltage is Resistance times AmperesWatts is Voltage times AmperesAlternative AnswerDivide the square of the voltage by the resistance.
A 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor What is the current in the circuit?
If a 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor connected in series, the current in the circuit is 1.0 amperes. If a 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor connected in parallel, the current in the circuit is 0.5 amperes.
A 5 ohm resistor a 10 ohm resistor and a 15 ohm resistor are connected in series to a 120 volt power source. What is the amount of current flowing between the 5 ohm resistor and the 10 ohm resistor?
The current would be about 20 volts.
Which resistor is connect 1.5 volt led to series 220v ac?
Typically, a 100 ohm resistor is used to connect a 1.5 volt led to a series 220v ac adapter. Many LEDs can be connected into a string using the resistors.
What does 3.6VA mean?
It means 3.6 volt amps which is essentially 3.6 watts.
4 ohms equals how many watts?
Ohms does not equal watts. You need to know what voltage is across the resistor to determine how many watts it is drawing or how many watts the resistor should be rated for.Power is the voltage across the resistor SQUARED divided by the resistance. If this 4 ohm resistor has 12 volts across it then the watts power is (12 x 12) / 4 = 36 watts.1 Watt equals 1 Volt times 1 Amp.
A resistor Connected to a 9 Volt supply dissipates 3 watts calculate the value of the resistance?
about 27ohms
What minimum fuse rating is needed for a 12 volt circuit when using one 48 watt bulb?
The formula you are looking for is Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps = Watts/Volts. This comes to 4 amps load. Minimum size fuse would be 5 amps.
What is the volt drop across a 10k resistor with a 5 volt supply?
If there is nothing else in the circuit, then the voltage drop across the resistor will be the full supply voltage of 5 volts. The size of the resistor does not matter in this case - it will always be 5 volts.
In order for a 30 volt 90 watt lamp to work properly in a 120 volt supply the required series resister in ohm is?
A 30 volt 90 watt lamp has 3 amps going through it. The series resistor also has 3 amps going through it, by Kirchoff's current law. The voltage across the resistor is 90 volts. With 3 amps, that is 30 ohms. (By the way... The resistor must be rated to carry 270 watts. That is a lot of power for a resistor.)
What size extension cord should you use for your 120 volt 1725 watt iron?
#16 <<>> To load an extension cord to 1725 watts depending on the length of the cord, the bare minimum should be #14. A better size cord and my recommendation would be a #12 wire size extension cord.
How can you convert a resistor of 270.4 watts to ohms without having been given voltage or current?
There is no way to make the conversion. The wattage given as that of the resistor is only the amount of power it is dissipating. It's the heat the resistor is radiating. The resistor is said to be using or radiating 270.4 watts. (That's a lot of wattage! How hot would a 270 watt incandescent lamp get? Very hot.) A watt is sometimes called a volt-amp. That's because watts equals volts times amps. And it's easy to see how that works with an example including the approximately 270 watts set down in the question. As regards that approximately 270 watts specified, if the resistor was a 1 ohm resistor and had 270 amps of current flowing through it, the 270 watts would be the wattage the resistor would be radiating. If the resistor was a 270 ohm resistor and had 1 amp of current flowing through it, it would (also) be radiating 270 watts. See how that works? An unlimited number of variations on the theme exist. To find the resistance of the resistor, one of two things must be known in addition to the wattage the resistor is running at. Either the voltage across the resistor or the current flow through the resistor must be specified to "finish" the problem.
What size breaker for a 1500 watt 120 volt heater?
To calculate the breaker size for a 1500-watt 120-volt heater, use the formula: Breaker size = Power (Watts) / Volts. In this case, 1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps. Therefore, you would need a 15-amp breaker for a 1500-watt 120-volt heater to allow for a safety margin.
How you find ups watts?
It is expressed in Volt-Amperes not Watts.
What size resistor is needed to drop 12 volt dc to 3 volt what is the formula?
The "size" (value or the power capacity) of the resistor can not be defined unless the power of the 3 volt bulb is known. If you tell me how many amps would the bulb draw from a 3 volt source, I will tell you exactly how many ohms of resistance, and how many watts of power capacity will be required of the resistor.
What is the power dissipated by a 10 ohm resistor with 20 volts supply?

How many watts does my 12 volt 2 amp battery charger draw?
