Questions  

What should be the value of resistance R in the circuit shown in figure so that the electric lamp consumes the rated power?

 

a
4.5 Ω
b
6 Ω
c
12 Ω
d
None of these

detailed solution

Correct option is B

The electric lamp consumes the rated power if the voltage across electric lamp is 3 V.∴   resistance  across AB  is 4.5  ΩResistance of lamp, Rb=   V2Pb = 320.5= 18 ΩRRbRb=4.5 Ω ;  18 R = 92  18+R ⇒  R=6 Ω
