Question

A fish called an electric eel can generate a voltage up to 800V. If it can supply a current of 5mA, the maximum power it can deliver is ______.

Options

• 4000 W

• 400 W

• 40 W

• 4 W

Answer 1

A fish called an electric eel can generate a voltage up to 800V. If it can supply a current of 5mA, the maximum power it can deliver is 4 W.

Explanation:

Given: Voltage (V) = 800 V

Current (I) = 5 mA = 0.005 A

Formula: P = V I

= 800 × 0.005

= 4 W
