Answer:
Maximum number of bulbs =18
Explanation:
As per the given data of the question,
We have,
Power of 1 bulb = 60 W
Main supply voltage = 220 Volts
Current = 5 A
Let suppose the maximum number of bulbs required = n
∴ Power of n bulb = power of 1 bulb × n = 60n W
Now, we know the formula for power,
Power = Voltage × Current
⇒ 60n = 220 × 5
⇒ n = 18.33
Since the number of bulbs can not be in fraction. Therefore the nearest possible integer is 18.
Hence, the maximum number of bulbs that can run safely = 18
