The electric bulbs have tungsten filaments of same length. If one of them gives $60 \,watt$ and other $100\, watt$, then
  • A$100\, watt$ bulb has thicker filament
  • B$60\, watt$ bulb has thicker filament
  • C
    Both filaments are of same thickness
  • D
    It is possible to get different wattage unless the lengths are different

a
${P_{Rated}} \propto \frac{1}{R}$ and $R \propto \frac{1}{{{{{\rm{(Thickness }}{\kern 1pt} {\rm{of}}\,{\rm{filament)}}}^{\rm{2}}}}}$

So  ${P_{Rated}} \propto {({\rm{Thickness}}\,{\rm{of}}\,{\rm{filament)}}^{\rm{2}}}$
