Explanation:
Power = P = 100 W
Voltage = V = 220v
Resistance = R
P = V²/R
100 = 220 ×220/R
R = 220 × 220/100
= 484 Ω
==========================
Power = P = 60 W
Voltage = V = 220v
Resistance = R
P = V²/R
60 = 220 × 220/R
R = 220× 220/60
= 806.7 Ω
=========================
As the resistors are connected in parallel ,
total resistance = 1/R
1/R = 1/484 + 1/806.7
= 806.7 + 484/484×806.7
= 1290.7/390442.8
R = 390442.8/ 1290.7 = 302.5 ohms
Total resistance = 302.5 Ω
I = current
V = IR
220 = I × 302.5
I = 220/302.5
= 0.73 A
The current drawn is 0.73 A
