Problem

The electrical power P drawn from a generator by a lightbulb of resistance R is P = V2/R,...

The electrical power P drawn from a generator by a lightbulb of resistance R is P = V2/R, where V is the line voltage. The resistance of bulb B is 42% greater than the resistance of bulb A. What is the ratio PB/ PA of the power drawn by bulb B to the power drawn by bulb A if the line voltages are the same?
