An unknown resistor R is connected to a 11.0 Ω resistor, and the combination is attached to an ideal battery. When the two resistors are combined in parallel, they consume 6.60 times as much power as when they are combined in series. Determine the two possible values for R.
case 1) in series
Req = R+11 , battery = V volts
power consumed P1 = V^2/(R+11)
case 2) in parallel
Req = R*11/(R+11)
power consumed P2 = V^2*(R+11)/(11*R)
=> as given P2 = 6.60*P1
=> V^2*(R+11)/(11*R) = 6.60*V^2/(R+11)
=> (R+11)^2 = 6.60*11R
=> R^2 + 22R + 121 = 72.6R
=> R^2 - 50.6R + 121 = 0
=> R = 52.88 ohm , - 2.28 ohm
