प्रश्न
State whether the resistance of filament of a bulb will decrease, remain unchanged or increase when it glows.

उत्तर
The temperature of the filament increases when it glows. So, when the temperature of the wire (bulb filament) increases, ions in it vibrate violently. As a result, the number of collisions increases and hence the resistance increases.
