A `100W` and a `500W` bulbs are joined in series and connected to the mains which bulb will glow brighter?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which bulb will glow brighter when a 100W and a 500W bulb are connected in series, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the resistance of each bulb The power rating of a bulb is given by the formula: \[ P = \frac{V^2}{R} \] Where: - \( P \) is the power (in watts), - \( V \) is the voltage (in volts), ...
