An electric bulb rated as 220 W, 110 V is used in a circuit having a 220 V supply. For the bulb to deliver 220 W, the resistance to be added in the series is
- A \( 55 \Omega \)
- B \( 110 \Omega \)
- C \( 165 \Omega \)
- D \( 220 \Omega \)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \( 55 \Omega \)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( I = P/V \) \( I = 220 \, W / 110 \, V = 2 \, A \) \( V_{series} = V_{supply} - V_{rated} \) \( V_{series} = 220 \, V - 110 \, V = 110 \, V \) \( R_{series} = V_{series} / I \) \( R_{series} = 110 \, V / 2 \, A = 55 \, \Omega \)

Some strains of `Bacillus thuringiensis` produce proteins that kill certain insects such as lepidopterans (tobacco budworm, armyworm), coleopterans (beetles) and dipterans (flies, mosquitoes). In `Bacillus thuringiensis` the toxin is coded by a gene `crylAc` named cry. There are a number of them, for example, the proteins encoded by the genes `crylAc` and `cryllAb` control the cotton bollworms, that of `crylAb` controls corn borer. Using conventional methods of diagnosis (serum and urine analysis, etc.) early detection is not possible. Recombinant DNA technology, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Enzyme Linked Immuno-sorbent Assay (ELISA) are some of the techniques that serve the purpose of early diagnosis. The first clinical gene therapy was given in 1990 to a 4-year old girl with adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency. This enzyme is crucial for the immune system to function. The disorder is caused due to the deletion of the gene for adenosine deaminase. `RNAi` takes place in all eukaryotic organisms as a method of cellular defense. This method involves silencing of a specific mRNA due to a complementary `dsRNA` molecule that binds to and prevents translation of the `mRNA`.

The speed at which a chemical reaction takes place is called the rate of reaction. The rate of reaction depends on various factors like concentration of the reactants, temperature, etc. The relation between the rate of reaction and the concentration of reacting species is represented by the equation r = k[A]x[B]y, where x and y are the order of the reaction with respect to the reactants A and B, respectively. The overall order of the reaction is x + y. The rate of reaction can also be increased by the use of a catalyst which provides an alternate pathway of lower activation energy. It increases the rate of forward and backward reaction to an equal extent. It does not alter the Gibbs energy of the reaction.
The rate law of a reaction is given by r = k[CH3OCH3]3/2. If the pressure is measured in bar and time in minutes, then the unit of rate constant will beCUET 2025 Easy
