Question
A 4 Ω resistor dissipates 16 W of power. What is the voltage across it?
Explanation
Given:
A 4 Ω resistor dissipates 16 W of power. What is the voltage across it?
These values define the system as per NCERT data.
Formula:
Power: P = V²/R.
This is standard NCERT relation.
Substitution & Calculation:
Rearrange: V = sqrtP R . Substitute: V = sqrt16 × 4 = sqrt64 = 8 V .
Result:
The computed value matches expected outcome and confirms correct choice as per NCERT.
