Answer:
P= 4W
V=10V
we know that P=VI
P=V²/R. ( Ohm's law)
4=100/R
R=100/4
R=25Ω
we also know
V=IR
I=V/R
I=10/25
I=0.4 A
If V=20V
P=VI
I=P/V
I=4/20
I=1/5
I= 0.2 A
P=V²/R
So for total resistance for (i) series
R=R1+R2
R=25+25
R=50Ω
P=5²/50
P=25/50
P=1/2
P=0.5W
And now for (ii) parallel
1/R=1/R1+1/R2
1/R=1/25
R=25
P=V²/R
P=25/25
P=1W
I HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU AND PLEASE MARKET AS BRAINLIEST ANSWER!!!
