A high-resistance voltmeter reads 3.0V when connected across the terminals of a battery on open circuit and 2.6V when the battery supplies a current of 0.2A through a lamp. The resistance of lamp is
  • A.
    2.00(Omega)
  • B.
    13.00(Omega)
  • C.
    0.52(Omega)
  • D.
    0.13(Omega)
  • E.
    1.50(Omega)
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation

IR = 2.6 and Ir = 0.4
0.2 x R = 2.6
R = 13.00(Omega)
