A 100 watt bulb working on 200 volt has ...

A 100 watt bulb working on 200 volt has resistance R and a 200 watt bulb working on 100 volt has resistance S.If the R/S is `8/x`. Find the value of x.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the resistances \( R \) and \( S \) of the two bulbs and then calculate the ratio \( \frac{R}{S} \) to determine the value of \( x \) in the equation \( \frac{R}{S} = \frac{8}{x} \). ### Step 1: Calculate the resistance \( R \) of the 100 W bulb operating at 200 V. Using the formula for power: \[ P = \frac{V^2}{R} \] ...
