AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to determine the resistance and maximum current for both bulbs. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Calculate the Resistance of the First Bulb (100 W, 220 V) The formula for power in terms of voltage and resistance is given by: \[ P = \frac{V^2}{R} \] Where: - \( P \) is the power (in watts), ...
