\(R=\frac{V}{I}\)
\(R=\frac{9}{1.5}=6\ ohms\)

\(P=\frac{(V^{2})}{R}\)
\(P=\frac{(9^{2})}{6}=13.5\ watts\)

AResistance,  R =  Voltage, V / Current, I

                           =  9 V / 1.5 A

                           = 6 Ω,    6 Ohms

b) Power P = IV

                     = 1.5*9 = 13.5 W

                    = 13.5 Watts
