Question

Three equal resistors in series give 90 W. What is the equivalent power in parallel?
Options
A 270 W
B 30 W
C 810 W
Correct Answer
D 10 W
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

For n equal resistors, parallel dissipates n2 times series power: 9x90 = 810 W.

Hint

For n equal resistors, parallel dissipates n2 times series power: 9x90 = 810 W.
