9.5 Electrical Energy and Power – University Physics Volume 2
If a resistor is connected to a battery, the power dissipated as radiant energy by the wires and the resistor is equal to [latex]P=IV={I}^{2}R=frac{{V}^{2}}{R}[/latex]. ... Ignore air resistance. (c) Assuming that the difference in the power consumed by the motor and the power used lifting the object are dissipated as heat by the resistance of ...
