When power and current are known use R = P/I^2 to calculate the resistance.

P = 300 watts
C = 30amps
R = ?
R = resistance, P = Power, 1 = Current

\bf{ \underline{Given:- }}


\sf• \: Power \:( P) = 300 \: watts


\sf• \: Current \: (I) = 30 \: amps


\\


\bf{ \underline{To \:  Find:- }}


\sf• \: The \: Resistance


\\


\huge\bf{ \underline{Solution :-:- }}


\bf \red {\bigstar{ Formula \: of \: Power \: (P) = \frac{ {I}^(2) }{R}}}


\sf \rightarrow 300= \frac{ {30}^(2) }{ R}


\sf \rightarrow 300 = (900)/( R)


\rightarrow \sf R = (300)/(900)


\rightarrow \sf R = (1)/(3)


\rightarrow \sf R = 0.33


\bf \purple{Hence, \: the \: resistance \: is \: 0.33 \: Ω \: . }
