Question:
An automobile’s 12. V battery is used to light the automobile’s two headlights. Each headlight can be modeled as a single resistor. If the two headlights are hooked up to the battery in parallel to form a circuit, and each headlight is to produce a power of 100. W, what should the resistance of each headlight be?
Draw the circuit and solve for the unknown quantity requested.
