Answer

The maximum dissipation rate is $~~90.0~W$

Work Step by Step

At resonance, $I_{rms} = \frac{\mathscr{E}_{rms}}{R} = \frac{\mathscr{E}_m}{\sqrt{2}~R}$ We can find $I_{rms}$: $I_{rms} = \frac{30.0~V}{\sqrt{2}~(5.00~\Omega)}$ $I_{rms} = 4.243~A$ We can find $P_{ave}$: $P_{ave} = I_{rms}^2~R$ $P_{ave} = (4.243~A)^2~(5.00~\Omega)$ $P_{ave} = 90.0~W$ The maximum dissipation rate is $~~90.0~W$
