2.C] Two resistors are connected in parallel and a voltage of 200V is applied to the terminals. The total current taken is 2.5 A, and the power dissipated in one of the resistors is 1500 W. What is the resistance of each element?
Answer:-
Given:-
- Voltage(V) = 200V
- Total current (It) = 25A
- Power in first Resistor (P1) = 1500W
To find, :- Resistance of second Resistor(R2) = ?
R = V/It = 200/25 = 8 Ohm.
Now,
Then, as we know that,
Therefore, the resistance of R2 is 80/7 ohm.
