Two lamps one rated 100 W; 220 V and the other 50 W; 220 V, are connected in parallel to electric mains supply. Find the current drawn by two bulbs from the line, if the supply voltage is 220 V

Answer» Power of one lamp = 100 W
Power of second lamp = 60 W
Total power consumed in the circuit = 100 + 60 = 160 W
Voltage of the main supply = 220 V
P=VI
I(Current) =P/V=160/220=0.727 A
