An electric heating coil of resistance R is immersed in 1 kg of
water at 20 °C. The coil is connected in series with a resistor
Y across a 240 V mains supply. The temperature of the water
rises to the boiling point in 10 minutes. When Y is disconnected,
the time taken for the 1 kg of water at the same temperature to
boil is reduced to 6 minutes. Neglecting all heat losses, calculate
the resistance R, of Y.

The hot water for the heating system for a small factory is supplied by a single boiler. The boiler is located in a small building separate from the factory. The power supplied to the boiler is 240-volt single-phase without a neutral conductor. At the present time, the small building housing the boiler has no inside lighting. The business owner desires that four 100-watt lamps be installed inside the building. All lamps are to be connected to a single switch. The lamps are to be connected to the present 240-volt service inside the building. How would you accomplish this task? Explain your answer.
