For an electrical component, the formulas for charge and voltage are given below.
A is 9 coulombs, B is 12 seconds, C is 3 volts, and D is 24 seconds.
Give the power of this component at t = 7 sec. You must round your answer to the nearest thousandth and give your answer as an integer followed by the appropriate metric prefix and the letter that represents the units of power.
Answer must be in standard form scientific notation with SI units that do not have prefixes except for kg. Provide the answer with the correct amount of significant figures. Thank you so much I greatly appreciate it. Note: all information is provided, the emf values of E1 and E2 are unknown, however we are not looking to find the EMF values. We are looking to find the resistance R
