(a) If a current of 1 ampere flows through it when the potential difference across it is 1 volt

(b) The electric power is the electric work done per unit time [P=W/T]. the relation between electric powe , potential difference and resistance is P=V2/R

(c) R= V/I

= 220/5 = 44 ohm 

R= 44 = 132/n 

hence, 132/44 = 3 Resistors
