A thermistor has a resistance of \( 10\,\text{k}\Omega \) at \( 25^\circ\text{C} \) and \( 1\,\text{k}\Omega \) at \( 100^\circ\text{C} \). The range of operation is \( 0^\circ\text{C} \) to \( 150^\circ\text{C} \). The excitation voltage is 5 V and a series resistor of \( 1\,\text{k}\Omega \) is connected to the thermistor. The power dissipated in the thermistor is:
