Assertion : The `200 W` bulbs glows with more brightness then `100 W` bulbs.
Reason : A `100 W` bulb has more resistance than a `200 W` bulb.

A

If both assertion and reason are ture and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

(a) The resistance, `R = (V^(2))/(P) implies R prop 1//P`
i.e., higher is the wattage of a bulb, lesser is the resistance and so it will glow bright.

Assertion: The 200 W bulb glows with more brightness than 100W bulbs. Reason: A 100W bulb has more resistance than a 200W bulb.

Which has more resistance : 100 W bulb or 60 W bulb ?

Assertion (A): When two bulbs are operated on same voltage supply, having power 60 W and 100 W then 100 W bulb has less resistance than 60 W. Reason (R): The power of the bulb is directly proportional to the square of the voltage.

Prove that 60 W bulb glows more brightly than 100 W bulb if by mistake they are connected in series.

Which one is having more resistance,100 W bulb or a 50 W bulb?

Assertion : Two electric bulbs of 50 and 100 W are given. When connected in series 50 W bulb glows more but When connected parallel 100 W bulb glows more . Reason : In series combination, power is direclty proportional to the resistance of circuit. But in parallel combination, power is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit.
