How Much Energy is Dissipated by Each Resistor in the Circuit?

[troyhagan]

Homework Statement

I have a circuit that has...(I will refer to each resistor as E_{}1 and E_{}2.
5V battery with two resistors.
Each resistor has 5\Omega of resistance.
E_{}1's Current dissipated is 1A, E_{}2 is the same.
Voltage dissipated by E_{}1 is .2V, E_{}2 is the same.
Power dissipated by E_{}1 is .2W, E_{}2 is also .2W.

Homework Equations

I am looking for Energy dissipated by each element (E_{}1, E_{}2) is.

Well, I can't imagine any circuit containing a 5V battery and two identical resistors that's capable of producing the voltage or power values you have included.

Power is just energy per unit time.

I calculated those. "/ Are they wrong?

also the time is one minute (60 seconds).
