Q4
The potential difference across the filament of a light-bulb is maintained at a constant value while equilibrium temperature is being reached. The steady-state current in the bulb is only one-tenth of the current drawn by the bulb when it is first turned on. If the temperature coefficient of resistivity for the bulb at $$20.0^{o}C$$ is $$0.004 50 (^{o}C)^{-1}$$ and the resistance increases linearly with increasing temperature, what is the final operating temperature of the filament?
