Question

Out of 60 W and 40 W lamps, which one has a higher electrical resistance when in use?explain

Open in App
Solution

we know that

P = V2/R

or

P ~ 1/R

thus, the bulb with a smaller power will have higher resistance and vice versa.

So, 40W bulb has a higher electrical resistance than 60W bulb.
