Formulas & Step-by-Step

Resistance

R = V ÷ I

575 ÷ 67.33 = 8.54 Ω

Power

P = V × I

575 × 67.33 = 38,714.75 W

Verification (alternative formulas)

P = I² × R

67.33² × 8.54 = 4,533.33 × 8.54 = 38,714.75 W

P = V² ÷ R

575² ÷ 8.54 = 330,625 ÷ 8.54 = 38,714.75 W

Circuit Analysis

Heat Dissipation

This circuit dissipates 38,714.75 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.

All 38,714.75W is dissipated as heat in a pure resistor at steady state. The 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.
For purely resistive loads, yes. For reactive loads, use impedance (Z) instead of resistance (R). Z includes both resistance and reactance, and the V/I phase shift shows up in power factor.
Ohm's Law (V = IR) and the power equation (P = VI) connect all four. Given any two, you can calculate the other two.
