Q198 / 225 · JEE Main 2002 · Physics
If in the circuit, power dissipation is $150 \mathrm{~W}$, then $\mathrm{R}$ is


- A$2 \Omega$
- Correct answerB$6 \Omega$
- C$5 \Omega$
- D$4 \Omega$
Solution
$W=\frac{V^2}{R_{\text {net }}} ; 150=\frac{(15)^2}{R}+\frac{(15)^2}{2} \Rightarrow R=6 \Omega$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
