Question

A 100W,200V bulb is connected to a 160V supply. The actual power consumption would be
  1. 185W
  2. 100W
  3. 64W
  4. 54W

A
185W
B
100W
C
54W
D
64W
Solution
Verified by Toppr


Resistance of the bulb R=V2P
where P=100W and V=200 V.
R=(200)2100=400Ω
Actual power consumption P=V21R
where V1=160 V
P=(160)2400=64W
