If the current in the electric bulb changes by 1%, then by what percentage will the power change?
Text Solution
AI Generated Solution
To solve the problem of how the power changes when the current in an electric bulb changes by 1%, we can use the relationship between power, current, and resistance. Here’s a step-by-step solution:
### Step 1: Understand the relationship between power and current
The power (P) consumed by an electric bulb can be expressed using the formula:
\[ P = I^2 \cdot R \]
where:
- \( P \) is the power,
- \( I \) is the current,
