9.5 Exercise 7

Avg difficulty 2.5

A 20.00-V20.00 -\text{V} battery is used to supply current to a 10-kΩ10 -\text{k} \Omega resistor. Assume the voltage drop across any wires used for connections is negligible. (a) What is the current through the resistor? (b) What is the power dissipated by the resistor? (c) What is the power input from the battery, assuming all the electrical power is dissipated by the resistor? (d) What happens to the energy dissipated by the resistor?
