The resistance of a bulb filmanet is $100\,\Omega$ at a temperature of $100\,^o  C$. If its temperature coefficient of resistance be $0.005$ per $^o C$, its resistance will become $200\,\Omega$ at a temperature of ................ $^oC$

$R_{1}=R_{0}[1+\alpha \times 100]=100$       ...$(1)$

$R_{2}=R_{0}[1+\alpha \times T]=200$       .......$(2)$

On dividing we get

$\frac{200}{100}=\frac{1+\alpha T}{1+100 \alpha} \Rightarrow 2=\frac{1+0.005 T}{1+100 \times 0.005} \Rightarrow T=400\,^{o} \mathrm{C}$
