Which of the following gases are filled in electric bulbs?
B1, B2 and B3 are three identical bulbs connected as shown in Figure. When all the three bulbs glow, a current of 3A is recorded by the ammeter A.
- What happens to the glow of the other two bulbs when the bulb B1 gets fused?
- What happens to the reading of A1, A2, A3 and A when the bulb B2 gets fused?
- How much power is dissipated in the circuit when all the three bulbs glow together?
Three incandescent bulbs of 100 W each are connected in series in an electric circuit. In another circuit another set of three bulbs of the same wattage are connected in parallel to the same source.
- Will the bulb in the two circuits glow with the same brightness? Justify your answer.
- Now let one bulb in both the circuits get fused. Will the rest of the bulbs continue to glow in each circuit? Give reason.
