Two electric lamps A and B marked 220 V, 100 W and 220 V, 60 W respectively. Which of the two lamps has higher resistance ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which of the two lamps has a higher resistance, we can use the formula for electrical power, which relates power (P), voltage (V), and resistance (R): \[ P = \frac{V^2}{R} \] From this formula, we can rearrange it to find the resistance: \[ R = \frac{V^2}{P} \] ...
