Electric power P = VI. For 60W, 120V bulb, current is: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Electric power P = VI. For 60W, 120V bulb, current is:
A. 2 A
B. 180 A
C. 0.5 A
D. 7200 A
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
I = P/V = 60/120 = 0.5 A. Direct power formula application. Memory tip: 'I = P/V for resistive loads; always use consistent units'. Basic electricity numerical frequently tested in competitive exams to verify formula application and unit handling.

Question #2
A wire of resistance 6 Ω is stretched to thrice its original length. New resistance is
A. 18 Ω
B. 36 Ω
C. 2 Ω
D. 54 Ω

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
R ∝ L² (volume constant). L'=3L => R' = 3² × 6 = 9×6 = 54 Ω. Generally, R' = n² R for stretching n times. Important concept.
