furnish a current of 25A. what is the EMF?
2. A load of 10 ohms was connected to a 12V battery. The current drawn was
1.18A. What is the internal resistance of the battery?
3. A 200V lam has a hot resistance of 400 ohms. What is the power rating of
the lamp?
4. An electric motor draws a mechanical load taking 18.8A from a 230V source.
Calculate the power input of the motor.

20. Convert the following measurement: a. 7.5kW to hp b. 3/4Hp to watts
6. A 10hp motor runs at rated load for 5hrs. How many kwH is consumed?
7. A residential house has a lighting load of 1000W and a small appliance load
of 2000W. If they are used at the same time, what will be the monthly bill
at an energy cost of 5 pesos per kwh?
8. A heater draws 2A at 12V DC. How many Joules does it consume in 15
minutes?
