Relationship between resistance and heat

[Shirin K.]

Alloys have higher resistivity than pure metals. In real life, our voltage source ,i.e. battery, is constant. Using the formula H=V^2/R, we get that resistance is inversely proportional to heat. Alloys, in that case, will produce less heat as their resitivities are low, so are their resistances.

 

[Orodruin]

Low resistance with same voltage applied implies more power dissipation. Besides that, what is your point?
If you short circuit a battery it will discharge fast while dissipating the stored energy.
