If a 30 V 90 w bulb is to be worked on a 120 V line, a resistance of how many ohms should be connected in series with the bulb?

a
10 ohm
b
20 ohm
c
30 ohm
d
40 ohm

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Suppose resistance R is connected in series with bulb. Current through the bulb, i=9030 =3 AHence for resistance V = iR⇒  90=3 ×  R ⇒ =30 Ω
