The power
P
dissipated
by a
resistance
R
carrying a
current I
with a
voltage drop
V is:
P = V2
/ R = VI = I2R
Similarly,
the power
P
dissipated
by a
conductance
G
carrying a
current I
with a
voltage drop
V is:
P = V2G
= VI = I2
/ G
The power
P
transferred
by a
capacitance
C
holding a
changing
voltage V
with charge
Q is:
P = VI =
CV(dv/dt) =
Q(dv/dt) =
Q(dq/dt) / C
The power
P
transferred
by an
inductance
L
carrying a
changing
current I
with
magnetic
linkage
Y
is:
P = VI =
LI(di/dt) =
Y(di/dt)
=
Y(dy/dt)
/ L
