Answer:
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
