Q78 / 270 · NDA 2021 (Phase 1) · General Ability

Which one of the following formulas does not represent electrical power?

  • A
    $I^2 R$
  • Correct answer
    B
    $I R^2$
  • C
    $V I$
  • D
    $V^2 / R$

Solution

Electric power, $\mathrm{P}=\mathrm{VI}=\mathrm{I}^2 \mathrm{R}=\frac{\mathrm{V}^2}{\mathrm{R}}$ $[\because \mathrm{V}=\mathrm{RI}$ from ohm's law]

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
