P Vxl.
P VxV/R.
3w = v^2/22O.
V^2 = 660,
V = √ 660,
V = 25.690v.
P VxV/R.
3w = v^2/22O.
V^2 = 660,
V = √ 660,
V = 25.690v.

p = v*i but; v = i*r.
Hence p = i*i*r.
p = i^2*r.
3w = i^2*220.
Then i^2 = 3w/220.
I^2 = 0.01363636.
Out of square root is correct answer.
Hence p = i*i*r.
p = i^2*r.
3w = i^2*220.
Then i^2 = 3w/220.
I^2 = 0.01363636.
Out of square root is correct answer.

220*3 = 660.
Square root 660 = 25.69.
Square root 660 = 25.69.

If you don't use calculator that means you will use log table.
v^2 = 660 therefor v = 660^1/2 making v = 1/2 log 660.
Then use logarithm table to simplify further.
Keep 1/2 constant look for log of 6 under 6 difference 0, compute and get the anti log. Put your point and then multiply by 1/2 and get your answer.

power P=V*I
P=V*(V/R)
3=V^2/220
V^2=660
V=25.690 VOLT
v =25.7 VOLT
P=V*(V/R)
3=V^2/220
V^2=660
V=25.690 VOLT
v =25.7 VOLT

power = v^2/r
hence, 220 = v^2/3
or, sqrt(660) = v
therefore, v = 25.693 volts.

therefore, v = 25.693 volts.
