Problem 2
A resistor is connected to a constant voltage source . Find the current, heating power, and heat released during time . (a) State the assumptions and establish the governing equation for the requested quantity. (b) Solve it in terms of the given symbols, identifying the direction, sign, or physical nature of the result. (c) Check a simple limiting case and state when the model remains valid. Use SI units consistently, retain the symbols in the setup, and enforce all geometric constraints and initial conditions.
