Two bulbs $X$ and $Y$ having same voltage rating and of power $40\, watt$ and $60\, watt$ respectively are connected in series across a potential difference of $300\, volt$, then
A$X$ will glow brighter
BResistance of $Y$ is greater than $X$
CHeat produced in $Y$ will be greater than $X$
DVoltage drop in $X$ will be greater than $Y$

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.

Two wires of the same material are given. The first wire is twice as long as the second and has twice the diameter of the second. The resistance of the first will be
The internal resistance of a primary cell is $4\, ohm$. It generates a current of $0.2\, amp$ in an external resistance of $21\, ohm$. The rate at which chemical energy is consumed in providing the current is .............. $J/s$
Three unequal resistors in parallel are equivalent to a resistance $1\, ohm$. If two of them are in the ratio $1 : 2$ and if no resistance value is fractional, the largest of the three resistances in $ohms$ is
A uniform wire of length $l$ and radius $r$ has a resistance of $100\, \Omega $. It is recast into a wire of radius $\frac{r}{2}$. The resistance of new wire will be ............... $\Omega$
Water fall from a $40\,m$ high dam at the rate of $9 \times 10^{4}\,kg$ per $hour$. Fifty percentage of gravitational potential energy can be converted into electrical energy. Using this hydroelectric energy number of $100\,W$ lamps, that can be lit, is
The ammeter $A$ reads $2\, A$ and the voltmeter $V$ reads $20\, V$. the value of resistance $R$ is (Assuming finite resistance's of ammeter and voltmeter)
