Solution

The correct option is C Bulb
Resonance in an electrical circuit is a phenomenon in which the inductive reactance and the capacitive reactance become equal and cancel each other.
As a result, the impedance of the circuit becomes the least and maximum current flows through the circuit. This happens only at a particular frequency of the AC power supply, known as resonant frequency.
All the devices except bulb work on this principle. The circuit in them is tuned in order to make their resonant frequency matching with the desired one. This is done by adjusting the values of the inductor or the capacitor.
In a bulb, there is only pure resistance and no reactive component. There is no question of resonance.
