Question:

37. IE •• An ohmic resistor in a circuit is designed to operate at 120 V.

(a) If you connect the resistor to a 60-V power source, will the resistor dissipate heat at

(1) 2, (2) 4, (3) 1/2, or (4) 1/4 times the designed power?

Why?

(b) If the designed power is 90 W at 120 V, but the resistor is connected to a 30-V power supply, what is the power delivered to the resistor?
