A resistor R1 consumes electrical power P1 when connected to an emf E. When resistor R2 is connected to the same emf, it consumes electrical power P2.

A)   In terms of P1 and P2, what is the total electrical power consumed when they are both connected to this emf source in parallel? In solving this problem, you will want to use an expression for the resistances in terms of the power consumed by each when connected to the emf alone.

B)   In terms of P1 and P2, what is the total electrical power consumed when they are both connected to this emf source in series?
