Question 30

A resistor has resistance R R\,R and a potential difference V V\,V across it. Which of the following equations correctly expresses the electrical power P P\,P dissipated by the resistor in terms of V V\,V and RRR?

A

P=V2RP = V^2 RP=V2R

B

P=V2RP = \frac{V^2}{R}P=RV2​

C

P=VR2P = V R^2P=VR2

D

P=VR2P = \frac{V}{R^2}P=R2V​
