A$X$ will glow brighter
a (a) Resistance $ \propto \frac{1}{{{\rm{power}}}}$. Thus, $40\, W$ bulb has a high resistance. Because of which there will be more potential drop across $40\, W$ bulb. Thus $40\, W$ bulb will glow brighter.

A technician has only two resistance coils. By using them singly, in series or in parallel, he is able to obtain the resistance $3,4,12$ and $16 \,ohms$. The resistance of the two coils are ........... $ohms$
Assertion $(A):$ In a meter bridge experiment, null point for an unknown resistance is put inside an enclosure maintained at a higher temperature. The null point can be obtained at the same $p$ as before by decreasing the value of the standard resistance.
Reason $(R):$ Resistance of metal increases with increase in temperature.
$E$ 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
Forty electric bulbs are connected in series across a $220\, V$ supply. After one bulb is fused, the remaining $39$ are connected again in series across the same supply. The illumination will be
In a wire of circular cross-section with radius $r$, free electrons travel with a drift velocity $V$ when a current $I$ flows through the wire. What is the current in another wire of half the radius and of the same material when the drift velocity is $2V$
In the circuit shown $E, F, G$ and $H$ are cells of $\mathrm{e.m.f.}$ $2\,V, 1\,V, 3\,V$ and $1\,V$ respectively and their internal resistances are $2\,\Omega , 1\,\Omega , 3\,\Omega$ and $1\,\Omega$ respectively.
