Voltage can be calculated using Ohm's Law:
Voltage = Current (A) x Resistance (Ω)
Voltage = 4A x 3Ω = 12 Volts
Therefore, the battery is a 12 Volts.
The power dissipated is Voltage x Current
Power = 4A x 12V = 48 Watts
Power dissipated = I2R 0.022 x 1000 = 0.4 watts
The voltage of a battery goes as the current times the resistance (V=IR). Because the voltage is being held constant, the resistor that draws the most current will have the lower resistance.
You just stated that the voltage across the resistor is 15 volts, so that's your answer ! If the resistor is connected to a 15-V battery or to the output of a 15-V power supply, then a meter across the resistor is also across the power supply, and reads 15 volts. The current through the resistor is (V/R) = (15/2700) = 5.56 mA. The power dissipated by the resistor (and delivered by the battery) is (V2/R) = (225/2700) = 0.083 watt.
When a resistor is added the current goes down, that is expressed in the equation current= voltage/ resistance
A circuit with a 2 ohm resistor and a 4 ohm resistor in series with a 12 volt battery will have 2 amps flowing through each resistor. The current is the same in each resistor because they are in series, and a series circuit has constant current throughout.
To find the energy dissipated in a resistor, you can use the formula: Energy (current)2 x resistance x time. This formula calculates the energy dissipated in the resistor based on the current flowing through it, the resistance of the resistor, and the time the current flows.
No, because the power dissipated in a resistor is proportional to the square of the current through the resistor but only directly proportional to the resistance of the resistor (I^2 * R) and the current through the lower value resistor will be higher than the current through the higher value resistor, the lower value resistor will usually dissipate more power.
No, a battery is not a resistor. A battery provides electrical energy, while a resistor is a component that restricts the flow of current in a circuit.
.205 watts or 205 mw
Power dissipated = I2R 0.022 x 1000 = 0.4 watts
Depends on the current. Put a resistor in-line with the current, then measure the voltage across the resistor. V=RI. So, divide the measured voltage by resistor value. Be careful with the size of the resistor, as Power dissipated in a resistor is R*I^2 or V^2/2. So, a 1-Amp current into a 1 Ohm resistor will result in a 1Watt power dissipated in the resistor. If it's too small, it'll burn. Also, notice that if you do that, you haven't measured the current in the original circuit. You've measured the current when an extra resistor is installed in the original circuit, and that's different.
Power dissipated by the resistor = I^2 * R or V^2 / R, where R = its resistance value, I = the current in the resistor, and V = the voltage drop across the two terminals of the resistor. You need to measure or find the information of either I (using an ammeter) or V (a voltmeter).
The formula for calculating the power dissipated in a resistor, known as the i2r power, is P I2 R, where P is the power in watts, I is the current in amperes, and R is the resistance in ohms.
I = 2A R = 1000Ω Power Dissipated P = I2R = (2A)2(1000Ω) = 4000W Voltage across resistor V = IR = (2A)(1000Ω) = 2000V
The voltage of a battery goes as the current times the resistance (V=IR). Because the voltage is being held constant, the resistor that draws the most current will have the lower resistance.
