As we learnt in

Power dissipiated in the circuit -

P= \left (\frac{E}{R+\frac{r}{n}} \right )^{2}\cdot R         

-

 

 

 

 R = \frac{v^{2}}{P}= \frac{\left ( 220 \right )^{2}}{1000}= 48.4 \Omega

Required power = \frac{v^{2}}{R}= \frac{\left ( 110 \right )^{2}}{48.4}

= 250 w

 


Option 1)

750 watt

This option is incorrect.

Option 2)

500 watt

This option is incorrect.

Option 3)

250 watt

This option is correct.

Option 4)

1000 watt.

This option is incorrect.

JEE Main high-scoring chapters and topics

Study 40% syllabus and score up to 100% marks in JEE

why isin’t this possible P = V/I P1 = 1000W, P2=?, V1=220V,V2=110V

I=P1/V1=1000/220=4.55

P2=I*V2

P2=4.55*110

P2=500W
