Ok so we know that electric power is:

$P=UI=I^2R$

If we express resistance.

$R=\dfrac{P}{I^2}$

Now if you have 100W of power you will probably get a bigger resistance than with 40W of power.

However here it says that the resistance of 40W bulb is bigger than 100W bulb. Which means the statement is incorrect.

Hope this helps.

MyPlate is an initiative from the United States Department of Agriculture that is designed to help Americans improve their eating habits throughout their lifetimes. Every meal matters. The five food groups represented in My Plate include vegetables, grain, dairy, protein foods, and fruits.

Calories are a source of energy for the human body. So, the more active a person is, the more energy he would need to be supplied to him in form of calories. The less active a person is, the fewer calories he would need.

You have a battery marked " 6.00 V 6.00 V ." When you draw a current of 0.383 A 0.383 A from it, the potential difference betwee

Archy [21]

Answer:

V = 4.81 V

Explanation:

As the potential difference between the battery terminals, is less than the rated value of the battery, this means that there is some loss in the internal resistance of the battery.
We can calculate this loss, applying Ohm's law to the internal resistance, as follows:

$V_{rint} = I* r_{int}$

The value of the potential difference between the terminals of the battery, is just the voltage of the battery, minus the loss in the internal resistance, as follows:

$V = V_{b} - V_{rint} = 5.03 V = 6.0 V - 0.383 A* r_{int}$

We can solve for rint, as follows:

$r_{int} = \frac{V_{b}-V}{I} =\frac{6.0V-5.03V}{0.383A} = 2.53 \Omega$

When the circuit draws from battery a current I of 0.469A, we can find the potential difference between the terminals of the battery, as follows:

$V = V_{b} - V_{rint} = 6.0 V - 0.469 A* 2.53 \Omega= 6.0 V - 1.19 V = 4.81 V$

As the current draw is larger, the loss in the internal resistance will be larger too, so the potential difference between the terminals of the battery will be lower.
