A current is maintained in a simple circuit that consists of a resistor between the terminals of an ideal battery. If the battery supplies energy at a rate of W, how large is the resistance

Resistance is as large as 2.8 ohm

Explanation:

Complete question

A 3.0 A current is maintained in a simple circuit that consists of a resistor between the terminals of an ideal battery. If the battery supplies energy at a rate of 25 W, how large is the resistance?

Solution -

The relation between Power and current is as follows  

P = I^2*R

R = P/I^2

Were P = Power

R = resistance and

I = current

Given-  

P = 25 W  

I = 3.0 A

Substituting the given values, in above equation, we get -  

R = 25/3.0^2

R = 2.8 ohm
