Question

Two bulbs of $$100 W$$ and $$200 W$$ working at $$220$$ volt are joined in series with 220 volt supply. Total power consumed wll be approximately.

A
$$33$$ watt
B
$$65$$ watt
C
$$100$$ watt
D
$$300$$ watt
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Correct option is A. $$65$$ watt
The two bulbs of 100W and 200W are working at 220V are joined in series with 220V supply
Thus ,$$P_{s}=\dfrac{P_{1}P_{2}}{P_{1}+P_{2}}=\dfrac{100\times 200}{100+200}=\dfrac{200}{3}\approx 65watt$$
