Formulas & Step-by-Step

Resistance

R = V ÷ I

100 ÷ 140.71 = 0.7107 Ω

Power

P = V × I

100 × 140.71 = 14,071 W

Verification (alternative formulas)

P = I² × R

140.71² × 0.7107 = 19,799.3 × 0.7107 = 14,071 W ✓

P = V² ÷ R

100² ÷ 0.7107 = 10,000 ÷ 0.7107 = 14,071 W ✓

Circuit Analysis

Heat Dissipation

This circuit dissipates 14,071 watts of power as heat. In a resistor, all electrical energy at steady state converts to thermal energy. The actual component power rating needs headroom above this steady-state figure, but the specific derating depends on resistor type (carbon-comp, metal-film, wirewound each behave differently), ambient temperature, airflow or heat-sinking, and whether the load is continuous or pulsed. Check the resistor datasheet for the manufacturer-specific derating curve rather than applying a blanket margin.

How are voltage, current, resistance, and power related?expand_more

Ohm's Law (V = IR) and the power equation (P = VI) connect all four. Given any two, you can calculate the other two.

What happens if I halve the resistance?expand_more

At the same 100V, current doubles to 281.42A and power quadruples to 28,142W. Lower resistance means more current, which means more power dissipated as heat.
