When a current I flows through a resistance R for time t, the electrical energy spent is given by ______.
Options
IRt
I2Rt
IR2t
I2R/t
Solution
When a current I flows through a resistance R for time t, the electrical energy spent is given by I2Rt.
Note: Electrical energy (W) = I²Rt = VIt = `("V"^2"t")/"R"`
