Answer:
Power (P)
Explanation:
In electromagnetism, power is defined as the rate at which electric energy is used:
[tex]P=\frac{E}{t}[/tex]
where
E is the electric energy
t is the time
Power is measured in Watts (W), where 1 W corresponds to 1 Joule per second (1 J/s).
In electric circuits, power can be also rewritten as
[tex]P=VI[/tex]
where
V is the voltage drop on the element we are considering
I is the current flowing through the element
The power dissipated through a resistor is also written as
[tex]P=I^2 R[/tex]
where I is the current through the resistor and R the resistance.
