The correct answer is: $50 \mathrm{~W}$
Resistance of the circuit, $\mathrm{R}=25 \Omega$

Impedance, $\mathrm{Z}=75 \Omega$
The average power dissipates per cycle in the circuit is
$$
\begin{aligned}
& P_{\text {avg }}=I_{r m s} V_{r m s} \operatorname{Cos} \theta \\
& =\frac{V_0}{\sqrt{.}} \frac{V_0}{\sqrt{ }} \times \frac{R}{Z}=\frac{V_0^2 R}{2 Z^2}=\frac{150^2 \times 25}{2 \times 75^2} \\
& =50 W
\end{aligned}
$$
