A typical light dimmer used to dim the stage lights in a theater consists of a variable induction for L (where inductance is adjustable between zero and `L_(max)`) conneced in series with a light bulb B as shown in fig. the mains electrical supply is 220 V at 50 Hz, the light bulb is rated at 220 V, 1100 W. What `(L_(max))` is required if the rate of energy dissipated in the light blub is to be varied by a factor of 5 from its upper limits of 1100 W?
