A filament bulb \((500 \,W,\,\, 100 \,V)\) is to be used in a \(230\, V\) main supply. When a resistance \(R\) is connected in series, it works perfectly and the bulb consumes \(500\,W.\) The value of \(R\) is .................. \(\Omega\)

  1. A \(26\)
  2. B \(13\)
  3. C \(230\)
  4. D \(46\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(26\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Resistance of bulb, \(R_{B}=\frac{V^{2}}{P}=\frac{(100)^{2}}{500}=20\, \Omega\) Power of the bulb in the circuit,
