उत्तर
a. The above statement gives the information that when the electric bulb is put at 240 V of a potential difference it consumes 100 W of power.
b. The bulb will consume less power.
c. R = `"v"^2/"p"`
`= (240 xx 240)/100`
= 576 Ω
d. Electrical energy (kWh) = kW × h
`= 100/100 xx 10/60`
`= 1/60` kWh
