उत्तर
100 W means, it will consume energy at a rate of 100 J per second.
200 V means, it will operate with optimum efficiency, when the p.d. at its ends is 200 V.
(a) Energy consumed by the bulb in two hours = P × t
\[ =100 \frac{\mathrm{~J}}{\mathrm{~s}} \times 7200 \mathrm{~s}\]
= 720000 J
(b) Energy = Power × time
2kWh = 100 W × time
2000 Wh = 100 W × time
∴ Time = 20 h
