Substituting IR for V,
Power This is a common form of the
power formula because of the
Dissipation in heat produced by current in a
resistance.
Resistance
For another form, substitute V/R
for I. Then
Example 2-7
● P=VxI
● P = I^2xR
● P = V^2/R.
Example 2-8
This means that the source delivers 200 W of power to the resistance and
the resistance dissipates 200 W as heat.
