Problem

The power delivered to an electronic device satisfies P=VIP=VI. At a certain instant, PP is increasing at 10.0 W/s, the voltage is V=50 VV=50\text{ V} and decreasing at 1.5 V/s, and the current is I=0.80 AI=0.80\text{ A}. Determine the instantaneous rate of change of the current, dIdt\dfrac{dI}{dt}, in A/s.
