Answer:

P = 97.2 W

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage drop, V = 54 V

The resistance of the resistor, R = 20 Ohms

Current, I = 1.8 A

We need to find the power used by the resistor. The formula used to find the power is given by :

P = VI

Putting all the values,

P = 54 V × 1.8 A

P = 97.2 W

So, the power used by the resistor is 97.2 W.
