In the following exercise they asked to find the average power of the 5 ohm resistor, then the average power of the 8 ohm resistor, and then deduce the the voltage source (rms) value.
Given: -2j capacitor absorbs -2.3 VARs.
I did the first part and found out that the average power of the 5 ohm resistor is 0.9199 W by finding that the Vrms = 3.033150178 V.
I haven't successfully used the information given or deduced so far to find the average power in the 8 Ohm resistor.
Any help is really appreciated!
