Ques. 1AIPMT 2012 (Mains)

The power dissipated in the circuit shown in the figure is 30 watts. The value of R is [figure]

  1. 20
  2. 15
  3. 10
  4. 30

Answer

(3) 10

Solution

R and 5 Ω are in parallel across the 10 V cell (ideal), so each has 10 V across it.

P = V2R + V25

30 = 100R + 1005 = 100R + 20

100R = 10

R = 10
