MCQ
Four identical electrical lamps are labelled $1.5V, 0.5A$ which describes the condition necessary for them to operate at normal brightness. A $12V$ battery of negligible internal resistance is connected to lamps as shown, then
  • A
    The value of $R$ for normal brightness of each lamp is $(3 / 4) \Omega$
  • The value of $R$ for normal brightness of each lamp is $(21 / 4) \Omega$
  • C
    Total power dissipated in circuit when all lamps are normally bright is $24 W$
  • D
    Power dissipated in $R$ is $21 W$ when all lamps are normally bright

Answer

Correct option: B.
The value of $R$ for normal brightness of each lamp is $(21 / 4) \Omega$
The value of $R$ for normal brightness of each lamp is $(21 / 4) \Omega$
