Bulb A and bulb B consume power 100 W and 60 W respectively when they are connected to a 220 V supply individually. The total power consumed by the bulbs if they are placed in series and then connected with the same supply is _________W.

Explanation

To solve the problem, we need to find the total power consumed by bulbs A and B when they are connected in series to a 220 V supply. Here’s a step-by-step solution:

### Step 1: Calculate the resistance of each bulb
The power consumed by a bulb can be expressed using the formula:
\[ P = \frac{V^2}{R} \]
Where:
- \( P \) is the power (in watts),
- \( V \) is the voltage (in volts),
...
