Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 1 : 2130 Ω

Concept:

The intensity of a bulb is directly proportional to the power dissipated by the bulb.

The power dissipated is given by

\(P = \frac{{{V^2}}}{R}\)

Where V is the voltage applied across the bulb

R is the resistance of the lamp

Calculation:

The power rating of lamp = 25 W

Voltage rating of lamp = 230 V

Resistance \(R = \frac{{{V^2}}}{P} = \frac{{{{230}^2}}}{{25}} =2116\;{\rm{\Omega }}\)

Resistance = 2130 Ω (approx)
