A resistor develops heat at the rate of 20W when the potential difference across its ends is 30V. What is the resistance of the resistor?
P=V2RP=\frac{V^2}{R}P=RV2
P=20 WP=20\:WP=20W
V=30vV=30vV=30v
20=302R=900R20=\frac{30^2}{R}= \frac{900}{R}20=R302=R900
R=90020=45ΩR=\frac{900}{20}=45\OmegaR=20900=45Ω
