which has higher resistance -
a 50w balb or a 2.5wbelb and how many times.
Answers
hey Mae here is ur ans
since we know that
P= VI
P= (IR)I
P = I²R
P is directly proportinal to R
so that why 50w bulb has more resistance than 2.5w bulb
hope it help u
GIVEN ;-
⇒ A 50 watts bulb
⇒ A 2 .5 watts bulb
TO FIND ;-
⇒ Which has higher resistance and by how much ?
SOL ;-
'' ⇒ A less power has always the higher resistance ''
⇒ 2. 5 watts has more resistance than 50 watts
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And also we know that -'' Power is inversely proportional to the resistance''
⇒ Power = voltage × voltage / resistance
⇒ Rα1/p
Let us take 50 watt as R -1 and resistor - 2 as 2. 5 watt bulb
Now let us find how many times it has more resistance
R - 1/ r - 2 ⇒ 50 / 2.5 ⇒20 times.
⇒⇒ ⇒So 2.5 watts is 20 times more than 50 watts of bulb.
