The resistance of a 40W car head lamp, drawing current from a 12V battery is ____.

  • A.
    0.3Ω
  • B.
    3.3Ω
  • C.
    3.6Ω
  • D.
    4.8Ω
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

Power delivered to head lamp = (frac{V_2}{R})

  = 40W

  R = (frac{V_2}{40})

  = (frac{(12 × 2)}{40})

  = 3.6Ω
