A \(120\) V supply feeds a circuit where resistor \(R_{1}\) is in series with the parallel combination of \(R_{2}\) and \(R_{3}\). The total current drawn from the supply is \(2\) A. It is known that \(R_{2}=2R_{3}\) and that resistor \(R_{3}\) dissipates \(30\) W. Find the resistance values of \(R_{1}, R_{2}, R_{3}\) in ohms, giving each answer to two decimal places.

Answer Options

A. R1=45.00 Ω, R2=30.00 Ω, R3=15.00 Ω
B. R1=50.00 Ω, R2=35.00 Ω, R3=17.50 Ω
Correct Answer C. R1=48.75 Ω, R2=33.75 Ω, R3=16.88 Ω
D. R1=46.20 Ω, R2=31.40 Ω, R3=15.70 Ω
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
R1=48.75 Ω, R2=33.75 Ω, R3=16.88 Ω
