Normally I don't do homework, but right now I feel sufficiently lubricated by ethanol, so...

V=IR, 250V=Resistance of motor * 50A
Rmotor= 5 Ohm
250/40=6.25
Your resistor value =1.25 Ohm
Power is 40^2 A*1.25Ohm=2000W

That seems high, but this is a textbook, and I seem drunk. Also, a large portion of the grid resistors at work are rated 40A continuous, so who am I to judge.

Pic somewhat related, it's a 30A fuse that didn't pass 200% tests. 40A rated grid resistors were used to reduce current to required amounts.
