(a)  Potential difference , V = 200 V .

Power of bulb , P = 100 W .

We need to find the resistance of the bulb.

We know ,

Power ,

(b) Now , we need to find the electric energy consumed by 3 bulbs in 10 hours for 30 days

 Total hours glowed=30*10=300

Energy consumed by 3 bulb=3*0.1*300=90KWh=90units

(c) Now, it is given that cost of one unit is 6.50 .

Therefore , total cost , 90*6.5=585
