the power in an electrical circuit is given by the equation p= /2 r, where / is the current flowing through the circuit. what is the current in a circuit that has resistance of 100 ohms and a power of 15 watts?
A. 0.15 amps
B. 0.39 amps
C. 6.7 amps
D.2.6 amps

Respuesta :

Answer:

Actually, the equation is

power (in Watts) = I² * r

I - current in amps and r - resistance in watts

Solving this for the current (I)

I = square root (power / resistance)

I = square root (15 / 100)

I = square root (.15)

I = 0.3872983346 amps

answer is B
