How would I figure out the total power in this circuit? http://user-content.enotes.com/37e352ae8dd206a9ba6b081e5981f4c77aa1f87b.jpg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Total power supplied by battery is given by P=VI V= emf of battery =10V I=current by battery =12mA

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't get it

We need to find the total power of the circuit which is the total power expended by the battery which is given by (emf of battery)*(total current supplied by the battery) i showed before total current supplied by the battery is 12mA and emf of battery is given to us as 10 V.

120 W?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

120mW

OpenStudy (anonymous):

as current is in mA

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought power was measured in Watts
