Ques 1. Define electric power .

An electrical device of resistance R is connected


across a source of voltage v and draws a current I . Derive an expression for power in
terms of current and resistance.

Ques 2. Two electric bulbs rated 100W; 220V and 60W; 220V are connected in
parallel to electric mains of 220V . Find the current drawn by the bulbs from the
mains.
As we Know P = VI

Therefore

Similarly

Now , Total Current I =


Ques 4. Study the following circuit and find out :

I. Current in 12 Ω resistor.
II. The difference in the readings of and , if any
Ans :

By ohm’s law :

…….. (1)

As 24 and 24 are connected in parallel therefore

Now the new circuit will be shown as


Now the total resistance , 12 Ω + 12Ω

Now putting value of

Ques 7. The rest position of the needles in a milliammeter and voltmeter , not in use are as shown in figure A . when the
student uses these instrument in his experiment , the readings of the needles are in the positions shown in figure b.
determine the correct value of current and voltages the student should use his calculations.
Ques 9. Compare the power used in 2 Ω resistor in each of the following circuits :

Ans : For circuit I :

As we know P = ………….. (1)

And by ohm’s law

Now As 1Ω and 2 Ω are connected in series

Therefore = 1 + 2 = 3Ω

And =

=2A

Putting value of in equation ( 1 ) we get

P= XR

Now for R= 2Ω

P = 4 X 2 = 8 watt
For Circuit II :

Since there is a parallel combination we use P =

Therefore P=

Now for R = 2 Ω

P= = 8 watt

Hence for both the circuit power consumtion will be same .

Ques 10. A bulb is rated 40 W;220V . Find the current drawn by it , when it is
connected to a 220V supply. Also find the resistance , If the given bulb is replaced by
a bulb of rating 25W;220V , will there be any change in the value of current and
resistance ? Justify your answer and determine the change.
