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.

                Capacitors are manufactured with certain standard capacitances and working voltages. However, these standard values may not be the ones that are actually needed in a particular application. Two or more capacitors can be grouped in series or in parallel to achieve desired capacitance and voltage. When connected in series, the total capacitance decreases while the voltage rating increases, whereas in parallel connections, the total capacitance increases and maintains the same voltage rating. A capacitor stores energy in the electric field between its plates and stored energy is proportional to the square of the voltage and capacitance $U = \frac{1}{2}CV^2$, where symbols have their usual meanings.
