How much RMS current does a 300W, 200V bulb take from the 200V, 50HZ power lines ?
A. 0.5A
B. 1.5A
C. 2A
D. 3A
Explanatory answer:
P=V^2/R
Therefore R= V^2/ P
R= 200^2 / 300
R= 133.33 ohm (resistance of lamp)
Rms current
taken by lamp = rms value of supply voltage /resistance of lamp
= 200 / 133.33
I = 1.5A
