In the circuit given below, if the bulb is to glow with maximum intensity, the value of ' \(R\) ' is
(neglect internal resistance of the cell)

  1. A \(1.25 \Omega\)
  2. B \(4.5 \Omega\)
  3. C \(6 \Omega\)
  4. D \(8.5 \Omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1.25 \Omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Resistance of bulb, \(R=\frac{V^2}{P}\) \(=\frac{(1.5)^2}{0.45}=5 \Omega\Resistance of bulb) \(P=i_1^2 R\) \(\begin{aligned} & 0.45=\mathrm{i}_1{ }^2 5 \\ & \mathrm{i}_1=0.3 \mathrm{~A}\end{aligned}\) Apply KVL, We have…
