The correct Answer is:
To find the resistance of the electric bulb, we can use the formula relating power (P), voltage (V), and resistance (R). The formula is: \[ P = \frac{V^2}{R} \] Where: - \( P \) is the power in watts (W), - \( V \) is the voltage in volts (V), - \( R \) is the resistance in ohms (Ω). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values**: - Power \( P = 100 \) watts - Voltage \( V = 220 \) volts 2. **Rearrange the formula to find resistance**: - From the formula \( P = \frac{V^2}{R} \), we can rearrange it to solve for \( R \): \[ R = \frac{V^2}{P} \] 3. **Substitute the known values into the formula**: - Plugging in the values we have: \[ R = \frac{(220)^2}{100} \] 4. **Calculate \( V^2 \)**: - Calculate \( 220^2 \): \[ 220^2 = 48400 \] 5. **Divide by the power**: - Now divide by the power: \[ R = \frac{48400}{100} = 484 \, \text{Ω} \] 6. **Conclusion**: - The resistance of the bulb is \( 484 \, \text{Ω} \). ### Final Answer: The resistance of the electric bulb is **484 ohms**. ---
