if the voltage across the lamp drops by 1%, the power drawn
will be reduced by how many %?

Answer Posted / nirmal maity

Let, voltage across the lamp =100v and resistance R =100 ohm
so, power P =v*I = 100*1=100W {I =V/R =100/100=1 }
If the voltage across the lamp drops by 1 percentage , then present voltage is 99v
Then present power drown by the lamp whose resistance R =100 ohm is P =V^2/R = 98*98/100 = 98.01W .
So power drop of the lamp is 100-98 =2 w

so the power drawn will be reduced by 2percentage
