One electric bulb is attached to a 220 V generator (current = 0.50A). Find the power of the bulb.

Electric power can be expressed as the rate at which work is done or energy is transmitted in an electric circuit. A given value of power can be generated by a value combination of current and voltage. In order to determine power of the bulb, we have to:

Step 1: Data Given

The following data is already mentioned:

Voltage, V = 220 V
Current, I = 0.05 A

Step 2: Finding Solution

Since the voltage and current of a bulb are already mentioned, power can be estimated via the derived formula of Power, which is:

Power = Voltage × Current

Thus,

⇒ p = 220 x 0.05p

= 22 x 0.5p

= 11 W

Therefore, the power which is required equals 11 W.

An astronomical telescope consists of two converging lenses. One of them of large aperture and large focal length is called objective lens and the other one, of smaller focal length and smaller aperture is called the eyepiece. It is used to see distant objects which are not seen clearly with naked eyes. The image formed by the objective lens acts as an object for the eyepiece and the final image produced by the eyepiece is magnified.

A p-type or n-type semiconductor can be converted into a p-n junction by doping it with suitable impurity. The motion of majority charge carriers causes diffusion current across the junction while the barrier electric field causes motion of minority carriers for drift current. In case of unbiased diode, the diffusion and drift currents are equal. This equilibrium is disturbed by the biasing batteries. Diodes, therefore, allow currents in one direction. This property of diode is used in making rectifiers.
