A current in a circuit having constant resistance is tripled. How does this affect the power dissipation?
Text Solution
AI Generated Solution
To solve the problem of how tripling the current in a circuit with constant resistance affects power dissipation, we can follow these steps:
### Step 1: Understand the Power Formula
The power (P) dissipated in a circuit can be calculated using the formula:
\[ P = V \times I \]
where \( V \) is the voltage and \( I \) is the current.
### Step 2: Relate Voltage to Current and Resistance
