    An electric bulb has a rated power of 50 W at 100V. If it is used on an AC source 200 V, 50 Hz, a choke has to be used in series with it. They should have an inductance of:

    A)  \[0.1\,mH\]                              

    B)  \[1\,mH\]

    C)  \[0.1\,H\]                                 

    D)  \[1.1\,H\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Resistance of bulb, \[R=\frac{{{V}^{2}}}{P}\,=\frac{{{(100)}^{2}}}{50}\,-200\Omega \]   Current through bulb, \[(I)=\frac{V}{R}\,=\frac{100}{200}\,=0.5\,A\] In a circuit containing inductive reactance \[({{X}_{L}})\] and resistance (R), Impedance (Z) of the circuit is given by: \[Z=\sqrt{{{R}^{2}}+{{\omega }^{2}}{{L}^{2}}}\] Here, \[Z=\frac{200}{0.5}=400\Omega \] Now,     \[X_{L}^{2}\,={{Z}^{2}}\,-{{R}^{2}}\,={{(400)}^{2}}\,-{{(200)}^{2}}\] \[{{(2\pi /L)}^{2}}=12\times {{10}^{4}}\] \[L=\frac{2\sqrt{3}\,\times 100}{2\pi \times 50}\,=\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{\pi }\,=1.1\,H\]
