What is the current in a circuit that has a resistance of 30 ohms and a power of 2 watts?

To find the current in the circuit, you can use the formula: Power = Current^2 * Resistance. Given the values, you can rearrange the formula to solve for current: Current = sqrt(Power / Resistance). Plugging in the values, you get Current = sqrt(2 / 30) which simplifies to approximately 0.27 amperes.


Is power directly proportional to resistance?

No, power is not directly proportional to resistance. The power dissipated in a circuit is given by P = I^2 * R, where I is the current flowing through the circuit and R is the resistance. This means that power is proportional to the square of the current but linearly proportional to resistance.


What is the formula for calculating current in a circuit when given the values of power and resistance, where i p/a?

The formula for calculating current in a circuit when given the values of power and resistance is i p/a.


Why does a motor have a bigger resistance than a bulb?

There is no particular reason why a motor should have a bigger resistance than a bulb. A motor's resistance must depend on what current it draws at the particular voltage it was designed to run on. Equally, a bulb's resistance must depend on what current it draws at the particular voltage it was designed to run on. A particular motor may have a higher resistance than one kind of bulb but that same motor may have a lower resistance than another kind of bulb.


What is the relationship between power (P), current (i), and resistance (r) in an electrical circuit?

The relationship between power (P), current (i), and resistance (r) in an electrical circuit is described by the formula P i2 r. This means that power is directly proportional to the square of the current and the resistance in the circuit.

Assume a device draws 50ma of current and 150vdc across it what is its resistance?

Ohm's law: Voltage = Current times Resistance Solve: Resistance = Voltage divided by Current So, a device drawing 50ma with 150V has a resistance of 150 / 0.05, or 3000 ohms. p.s. Since power is volts times amps, that device is dissipating 7.5 watts.


What are the relationships between current power and resistance?

Power is inversely proportional to resistance. Ohm's law: Current is voltage divided by resistance Power law: Power is voltage times current, therefore power is voltage squared divided by resistance.


What is resistance power?

All resistances will emit heat energy when a current flows. The heat production rate (or power) can be found by any of these formulas: Power = Current * Voltage Power = Current2 * Resistance Power = Voltage2 / Resistance. Power is given in Watts when Current is in Amps, Voltage in Volts, and Resistance in Ohms.


Why does transformer draws current when secondary is kept open?

A: If the transformer is connected to a power input of course it will draw current. The primary is a long wire it has own resistance wrap around an iron core. Of course there will be primary current whether there is a load on the secondary or not.


What is the power if the resistance is 1.2k and the current is 0.024 ma?

If the resistance is 1.2k and the current is 0.024 ma, then the voltage is 0.0288 volts. (Voltage = resistance times current) If the voltage is 0.0288V and the current is 0.024 ma, then the power is 0.6912 microwatts. (Power = voltage times current)


Power may be expressed as what times resistance?

Power=current squared times resistance

How do you calculate power loss from a resistor?

The power dissipated across a resistor, or any device for that matter, is watts, or voltage times current. If you don't know one of voltage or current, you can calculate it from Ohm's law: voltage equals resistance times current. So; if you know voltage and current, power is voltage times current; if you know voltage and resistance, watts is voltage squared divided by resistance; and if you know current and resistance, watts is current squared times resistance.

What happens to the power of an electric circuit of the resistance is decreased?
