How much total energy is dissipated in 10 seconds in 4.0 ohm resistor with a current of 0.50 ampere? Physics 1 Answer Narad T. Apr 6, 2017 The energy is #=20J# Explanation: The power of a resistor is #P=RI^2# The resistance is #R=4Omega# The current is #I=0.5A# The power is #P=4*0.5=2W# The energy is #E=Pt# #E=2*10=20J# Answer link Related questions How do I determine the molecular shape of a molecule?
