To calculate the resistance of the light bulb rated at 100 W for a 220 V a.c. supply, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between power, voltage, and resistance The average power (P) in an AC circuit can be expressed using the formula: \[ P = V_{\text{rms}} \times I_{\text{rms}} \] where \( V_{\text{rms}} \) is the root mean square voltage and \( I_{\text{rms}} \) is the root mean square current. ### Step 2: Use Ohm's Law to relate current and resistance ...
