Question
7. A 100 W incandescent lamp has a resistance when cold (lamp extinguished) that
is only 1/12 of its hot (lamp illuminated) resistance value.
a) What is the lamp current and its hot resistance when placed across a 120 V
line?
b) What is the cold resistance of this lamp?
c) What is the instantaneous current through the lamp at the moment it is
switched on?
d) What power does the lamp dissipate at this instant?
