Two electric bulbs, each designed to operate with a power of 500 watts in 220 volt line, are connected in series with a 110 volt line. What will be the power generated by each bulb?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
( 
= 31.25 watt)
Sol. R = 
for the two bulbs
V will be the potential difference individually
P = 
× 
= 
= 
= 31.25 W
