Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 96.9

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( P_{out}=1000\,W \)
\( P=VI \)
\(1000=250 \times I\)
I=4A
\( P_{loss}=I^{2}R=(4)^{2}\times2=3200\, \)
\( P_{net}=1000+32=103200\, \)
\( \eta=(\frac{P_{out}}{P_{net}})\times100=\frac{1000}{1032}\times100=96.89\% \)
