    Answer:

    12V

    Explanation:

    Given parameters:

    Resistance  = 12ohms

    Heat released = 144J

    Time taken = 12s

    Unknown:

    Voltage at the ends of the conductors = ?

    Solution:

    To solve this problem, we must first determine the power expended by the circuit.

    Power is the rate at which work is done;

                    P  = \frac{work done }{time}

                        = \frac{144}{12}

                        = 12W

    Electrical power is given as;

                 P  = IV  = \frac{V^{2} }{R}

                Since V is the unknown, we  solve for it;

              12  = \frac{V^{2} }{12}

               V  = 12V
