प्रश्न
Find the energy released by a current of 0.25 amperes flowing through a heater for 5 minutes. The p.d. is 230 V.
उत्तर
V = 230 volts; t = 5 minutes = 60 × 5 = 300 s, I = 0.25 amperes
W = VIt = `230 xx 25/100 xx 300`
W = 17250 Joules

The coil of an electric bulb takes 40 watts to start glowing. If more than 40 W are supplied, 60% of the extra power is converted into light and the remaining into heat. The bulb consumes 100 W at 220 V. Find the percentage drop in the light intensity at a point if the supply voltage changes from 220 V to 200 V.
