When two resistances

{R_1}

and

{R_2}

are connected in series and parallel with

120\,\,V

line power consumed will be

25\,\,W

and

100\,\,W

respectively. Then the ratio of power consumed by

{R_1}

to that consumed by

{R_2}

will be

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

\begin{array}{llllllllllllllllllll} {\mathrm{1 :1}} \end{array}

Option A (1:1) is correct because the ratio of the resistances R1 and R2 is found to be 1:1 based on the given power consumption in series and parallel combinations.
