Q12. In given picture.
Q.12. If the current I through a resistor is increased by 100 % (assume that temperature remains unchanged), the increase in power dissipated will be
(a) 100 %
(b) 200 %
(c) 300 %
(d) 400 %

Solution

P=I²R. since the current becomes double from the formula the power will becomes four times of the initial power.
400 percent will be the ans
