\

Step 1:

\

The emf of the battery \"image\" is 8V.

\

The internal resistance of the battery is \"\" .

\

Two coils of their resistances \"\" connected in parallel.

\

Draw a circuit with above specifications :

\

 \"\"

\

 Step 2:

\

Find the equivalent resistance :

\

Resistor \"\" parallel.

\

Let \"\" is equivalent parallel resistance.

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

Now \"\" is in series with the internal resistance of the battery.

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

 Step 3:

\

Find the current in the circuit :

\

From ohms law : \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Substitute \"\".

\

\"\"

\

 Step 4:

\

(1)

\

Suppose that the battery with emf \"image\" and internal resistance \"image\" supplies a current \"image\" through an external load resistor \"image\", then the potential difference across the battery is \"\" .

\

Substitute , \"\" and \"\"  in \"\".

\

\"\"

\

The potential difference across battery terminal is \"\".

\

 Step 5:

\

(2)

\

The voltage in the parallel loop is \"\".

\

The voltage in the parallel loop same.

\

So, the voltage across each coil is same.

\

Current through the coil which has resistance \"\".

\

From ohms law : \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Current through the coil which has resistance \"\".

\

From ohms law : \"\".

\

\"\"

\

 Step 6:

\

(3)

\

Power observed by each coil :

\

Power can be calculated using the relation : \"\".

\

Where \"\" is power absorbed,

\

          \"\" is current through the coil,

\

            \"\" resistance of the coil.

\

Power absorbed by the \"\" coil is

\

\"\"

\

Power absorbed by the \"\" coil is

\

\"\"

\

Solution:

\

The potential difference across battery terminal is \"\".

\

Current through the \"\" coil is\"\".

\

Current through the \"\" coil is \"\" .

\

Power absorbed by the \"\" coil is 4.98 W.

\

Power absorbed by the \"\" coil is 3.32 W.
