Best Answer

A 30 volt 90 watt lamp has 3 amps going through it. The series resistor also has 3 amps going through it, by Kirchoff's current law. The voltage across the resistor is 90 volts. With 3 amps, that is 30 ohms. (By the way... The resistor must be rated to carry 270 watts. That is a lot of power for a resistor.)

Why series a resistor with a load for a DC supply circuit?

Good question on a linear power supply a load is not really required since it is nothing but a low band power amplifier. ON a switching type power supply a minimum load is always required so the PWM has something to control to. Also the soft start circuit may blowup waiting for feedback .Critical circuit since it operates for a very short time. however the load is in parallel not in series.
