The power dissipated in a resistor is given by P = V2/R, which means power decreases if resistance increases. Yet this power is also given by P = I2R, which means power increases if resistance increases. Explain why there is no contradiction here.
Ralph has three resistors, R1, R2, and R3, connected in series. When connected to an ideal emf source E1, current I1 flows through the resistors. a. If the resistors are instead connected to a second source with E2=2E1, what is the new current through the resistors in terms of the first current? b. Show that, if each resistance is doubled and the resistors are connected in series to the second emf source, the current through the resistors is equal to I1.
