The video tutorial explains how to solve a learning assessment problem involving power calculation in a circuit. It introduces the problem, describes the elements involved, and explains the power formulas and the Intelligence Theorem. The tutorial then applies the theorem to calculate power for each element, using the passive convention to determine if elements are absorbing or supplying power. Finally, it verifies the results using the Intelligence Theorem, ensuring that the power supplied equals the power consumed.
