To solve the problem of finding the power consumed when two bulbs rated at 220 V-100 W and 220 V-60 W are connected in series across a 220 V supply, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the Resistance of Each Bulb Using the formula for power, \( P = \frac{V^2}{R} \), we can rearrange it to find the resistance \( R \): \[ R = \frac{V^2}{P} \] ...
