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$100\, watt$ bulb has thicker filament
a ${P_{Rated}} \propto \frac{1}{R}$ and $R \propto \frac{1}{{{{{\rm{(Thickness }}{\kern 1pt} {\rm{of}}\,{\rm{filament)}}}^{\rm{2}}}}}$
So ${P_{Rated}} \propto {({\rm{Thickness}}\,{\rm{of}}\,{\rm{filament)}}^{\rm{2}}}$

The resistance of a wire is ${10^{ - 6}}\,\Omega $ per meter. It is bend in the form of a circle of diameter $2\,m$. A wire of the same material is connected across its diameter. The total resistance across its diameter $AB$ will be
Consider the circuit given here with the following parameters $E.M.F.$ of the cell = $12\, V$. Internal resistance of the cell $ = 2\,\Omega $. Resistance $R = 4\,\Omega $ Which one of the following statements in true
$E$ denotes electric field in a uniform conductor, $I$ corresponding current through it, ${v_d}$ drift velocity of electrons and $P$ denotes thermal power produced in the conductor, then which of the following graph is incorrect
An electric heater consists of a nichrome coil and runs under $220 \,V$, consuming $1 \,kW$ power. Part of its coil burned out and it was reconnected after cutting off the burnt portion.The power it will cunsume now is
Three resistances of one ohm each are connected in parallel. Such connection is again connected with $\frac{2}{3}\,\Omega $ resistor in series. The resultant resistance will be ........... $\Omega$
