Given that 2 resistors of 10 ohm and 20 ohm are connected in series. 
Total resistance (R) = R₁+R₂ = 10+20 = 30Ω
Potential difference (V) = 12v
Power consumed (P) = ?

From ohms law, V = iR
                           i = V/R ----- 1


We know that, P = iV
From 1,           P = V²/R
Placing the given values in the formula
                       P = 12 x 12 / 30
                       P = 4.8 w

Therefore, Power consumed = 4.8 watts
