The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the circuit consisting of a 100 W bulb and an ideal inductor connected in parallel to a 90 V battery. We will determine what happens when the switch is pressed. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Components**: - We have a 100 W bulb connected in parallel with an ideal inductor of 1 H. - The circuit is powered by a 90 V battery. 2. **Calculate the Resistance of the Bulb**: - The power (P) of the bulb is given as 100 W. - The voltage (V) across the bulb is 90 V. - Using the formula for power: \[ P = \frac{V^2}{R} \] Rearranging gives: \[ R = \frac{V^2}{P} \] - Substituting the values: \[ R = \frac{90^2}{100} = \frac{8100}{100} = 81 \, \Omega \] 3. **Understand the Behavior of the Inductor**: - The inductor is ideal and has a reactance (X_L) that depends on frequency (f). In a DC circuit, the frequency is 0, thus: \[ X_L = 2\pi f L = 2\pi \cdot 0 \cdot 1 = 0 \, \Omega \] - This means that the inductor behaves like a short circuit when the switch is pressed. 4. **Current Path Analysis**: - Since the inductor has zero resistance, the current will prefer to flow through the inductor rather than the bulb. - As a result, the current bypasses the bulb. 5. **Conclusion**: - Since the current does not flow through the bulb, it will not glow when the switch is pressed. ### Final Answer: The bulb does not glow when the switch is pressed.
