Problem 4.141

A series circuit consisting of an inductance-free resistance \(R=0.16 \mathrm{k} \Omega\) and a coil with active resistance is coninected to the mains with effective voltage \(V=220 \mathrm{~V}\). Find the heat power generated in the coil if the effective voltage values across the resistance \(R\) and the coil are equal to \(V_{1}=80 \mathrm{~V}\) and \(V_{2}=180 \mathrm{~V}\) respectively.

Reveal Answer
P2=1/2(V2V12V22)/R=30 WP_{2}=1 / 2\left(V^{2}-V_{1}^{2}-V_{2}^{2}\right) / R=30 \mathrm{~W}
