Electrical Power & Heating Effect

If two bulbs, whose resistances are in the ratio of 1:21 : 2 are connected in series, the power dissipated in them has the ratio of

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. In series the current is the same, so P=I2R∝RP = I^2 R \propto R.
  2. P1:P2=R1:R2=1:2P_1 : P_2 = R_1 : R_2 = 1 : 2.
  3. So the answer is (d) 1 : 2.
