how many 176 ohm resistors(in parallel) are required to carry 5A on a 220V line?

Question

Aarti Gupta · Answer

Given &ndash; Current,I = 5A Potential difference,V = 220V Resistance of each resistors = 176ohm No. of resistors connected in parallel = ? Solution &ndash; Let total no. of resistors connected in parallel be &lsquo;n&rsquo; so that total effective resistance be R. We know that according to Ohm&rsquo;s Law, V = IR Therefore, R = V/I = 220/5 = 44ohm Now since n such resistors are connected in parallel,so 1/R = n/176 or, 1/44 = n/176 n = 176/44 = 4resistors Thus 4 such resistors will be required to connected in parallel.
