Homework Statement
Eight lights are connected in parallel to a 110-V source by two long leads of total resistance 1.6 Ω.
a. If 302 mA flows through each bulb, what is the resistance of each?
b. What percent of the total power is wasted in the leads?
Homework Equations
V=I
P=V^2/R
R. The attempt at a solution
I found the total resistance to be 45.5298 V but when plugging that into find the resistance of each bulb, I can't seem to get to the right answer. What am I missing here?
