Question 43
Electrical Energy and PowerA current of 0.5 A flows through a resistor when connected to a 40-V battery. How much energy is dissipated in 2 minutes?
- A.1200 J
- B.1500 J
- C.2400 J
- D.96000 J.
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: C (2400 J)
Explanation
Energy = IVt = 0.5 × 40 × 120 = 2400 J.
