What is the resistance of a 150 W lightbulb connected to a 24 V voltage source?

3.84 Ω

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Electrical power (P) = 150 W

Voltage (V) = 24 V

Resistance (R) =?

P = IV

Recall:

V = IR

Divide both side by R

I = V/R

P = V/R × V

P = V² / R

Where:

P => Electrical power

V => Voltage

I => Current

R => Resistance

With the above formula (i.e P = V²/R), we can calculate resistance as illustrated below:

Electrical power (P) = 150 W

Voltage (V) = 24 V

Resistance (R) =?

P = V²/R

150 = 24² / R

150 = 576 / R

Cross multiply

150 × R = 576

Divide both side by 150

R = 576 / 150

R = 3.84 Ω

Thus, the resistance is 3.84 Ω
