 V = 240VNow , Rlamp = V2 = 2402 = 1440 Ω P 40 
 AT t = 26 °, R = 120W and α = 4.5 × 10– 3/ °C
 Now Rlamp = R[1 + α (t2 – t1)]
 ∴ 1440 = 120[ 1 + 4.5 × 10– 3 (θ2 - 26)]
 t2 = 2470.44 °CCorrect Option: BP = 40 W 
 V = 240VNow , Rlamp = V2 = 2402 = 1440 Ω P 40 
 AT t = 26 °, R = 120W and α = 4.5 × 10– 3/ °C
 Now Rlamp = R[1 + α (t2 – t1)]
 ∴ 1440 = 120[ 1 + 4.5 × 10– 3 (θ2 - 26)]
 t2 = 2470.44 °C
-  In the figure, the value of resistor R is (25 + I/2) ohms, where I is the current in amperes. The current I is _________ 
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum R =  25 + I  2 
 Now V = RI∴ 300 = I  25 + I   ∴ R = 25 + I  2 2 
 ∴ 600 = 50 I + I2
 I = 10 A or – 60 A
 I2 + 50 I – 600 = 0
 ∴ I = 10A
 Correct Option: CR =  25 + I  2 
 Now V = RI∴ 300 = I  25 + I   ∴ R = 25 + I  2 2 
 ∴ 600 = 50 I + I2
 I = 10 A or – 60 A
 I2 + 50 I – 600 = 0
 ∴ I = 10A

-  The total power dissipated in the circuit, shown in the figure, is 1 kW. 
 The voltmeter, across the load, reads 200 V. The value of XL is ___________.
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Power dissipation = 1 kW = 1000 W 
 ⇒ 1000 = 22 .1 + 102. R
 [Power dissipation occurs in 1 Ω and Resistor R]
 ⇒ 1000 = 4 + 100 R
 ⇒ R = 9.96 Ω
 Now , 
 ⇒ 2002 = 100 R2 + 100 XL2
 ⇒ 10XL = 173.43
 ⇒ XL = 17.34Correct Option: DPower dissipation = 1 kW = 1000 W 
 ⇒ 1000 = 22 .1 + 102. R
 [Power dissipation occurs in 1 Ω and Resistor R]
 ⇒ 1000 = 4 + 100 R
 ⇒ R = 9.96 Ω
 Now , 
 ⇒ 2002 = 100 R2 + 100 XL2
 ⇒ 10XL = 173.43
 ⇒ XL = 17.34
