By what percentage will the illumination of the lamp decrease if the current drops by \(20 \%\) ?
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(36 \%\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(P=i^2 R\)
\(P_{\text {int }}=I^2{ }_{\text {int }} R\)
\(P_{\text {final }}=\left(0.8 I_{\text {int }}\right)^2 R\)
\(\% \text { change in power }=\)
\(\frac{P_{\text {final }}-P_{\text {int }}}{P_{\text {int }}} \times 100=(0.64-1) \times 100=-36 \%\)
