If the d.c. voltage applied across a bulb increases by 2% and the resistance of its filament increases by 1% what is the maximum change in power dissipated in the bulb? 

a
3%
b
5%
c
7%
d
9%

detailed solution

Correct option is B

P=V2R⇒(ΔPP)max⁡×100%=2(ΔVV)×100%+(ΔRR)×100%∴ (ΔPP)max⁡×100%=2×2%+1%=5%
