\(\mathrm{V}_1 =220 \mathrm{~V}, \quad \mathrm{P}_1=60 \mathrm{~W} \)
\(\mathrm{~V}_{\mathrm{U}} =110 \mathrm{~V}, \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{U}}=60 \mathrm{~W} \)
\(P =\frac{V^2}{R} \Rightarrow R=\frac{V^2}{P} \)
\(\therefore R_l =\frac{V_I^2}{P_l} \text { Similarly, } \quad \mathrm{R}_U=\frac{V_U^2}{P_U} \)
\(R_l =\frac{220 \times 220}{60} \quad \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{U}}=\frac{110 \times 110}{60} \)
\(R_I =\frac{48400}{60} \quad R_U=\frac{12100}{60} \)
\(\frac{R_U}{R_l} =\frac{12100}{60} \times \frac{60}{48400}=\frac{1}{4} \)
\(R_U =\frac{R_l}{4}=\frac{R}{4}\)
