I found out that Power of an electrical circuit will be equal to the work done divided by the time T for which the power by the cell or battery is exerting to keep a potential difference V in the circuit for a charge Q.
Hence, Power= Voltage*Charge/time
Which then can be written as: Power= Voltage*Current
Now, when we want to calculate the heat dissipated, the formula is: Heat dissipated= Voltage*Current*time
But the value of current is already: Current= Charge Carried/ time
So, my problem is, why isn't Heat dissipated= Voltage*Charge carried/time*time = Voltage*Charge carried
Please help me.
