two lamps one rated 40w at 220v and the other 100W at 220V are connected in parallel to the electric supply at 220V a) Draw a circuit diagram to show the connections b) Calculate the current drawn from the electric supply c) Calculate the total energy consumed by the two lamps together when they operate for one hour
Answers
Answer:
hope it helps.
Explanation:
We have given two lamps in such a way :
Power of 1st lamp, P₁ = 40W , voltage of 1st lamp, V₁ = 220V
power of 2nd lamp , P₂ = 60W , voltage of 2nd lamp ,V₂ = 220V
we know, one things ,
Power = V²/R [ when potential difference is same then consider P = V²/R ]
R = V²/P
so, resistance of 1st lamp , R₁ = V₁²/P₁ = (220)²/60 = 4840/6 = 2420/3Ω
resistance of 2nd lamp , R₂ = V₂²/P₂ = (220)²/40 = 48400/40 = 1210Ω
Now, question said ,
(a) Both the lamps are in parallel ,
So, 1/Req = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂
1/Req = 3/2420 + 1/1210 = 5/2420 = 1/484
Req = 484Ω
Now, Current drawn from electrical supply ,i = potential difference/Req
= 220V/484 = 20/44 = 5/11 A
(b) energy consumed by lamps in one hour = Energy consumed by 1st lamps in one hour + energy consumed by 2nd lamps in one hour
= P₁ × 1hour + P₂ × 1 hour
=(P₁ + P₂) × 1 hour
= (60W + 40W) × 1 hour
= 100 Wh
= 100/1000 KWh [ ∵ 1 KWh = 10²Wh ]
= 0.1 KWh
