    In India electricity is supplied for domestic use at 220 V. It is supplied at 110 V in USA. If the resistance of a 60 W bulb for use in India is R, the resistance of a 60 W bulb for use in USA will be

    A)  R                                

    B)  2R

    C)  \[\frac{R}{4}\]                         

    D)  \[\frac{R}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Since, power rating of bulb in both the countries India and USA should be the same, so \[\frac{V_{1}^{2}}{{{R}_{1}}}=\frac{V_{2}^{2}}{{{R}_{2}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{220\times 220}{{{R}_{1}}}=\frac{110\times 110}{{{R}_{2}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{{{R}_{2}}}{{{R}_{1}}}=\frac{110}{220}\times \frac{110}{220}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{R}_{2}}=\frac{R}{4}\]                                    \[(\because \,{{R}_{1}}=R)\]
