A `280` ohm electric bulb is connected to `200V` electric line. The peak value of current in the bulb will be

A

About one ampere

B

Zero

C

About two ampere

D

About four ampere

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`i_(max)=200/280=5/7 A`, So `i_(0)=i_(max)xxsqrt(2)=5/7xxsqrt(2)~~1A`.
