Two bulbs $X$ and $Y$ have the same voltage rating and their power ratings are $40 \ W$ and $60 \ W$ respectively. They are connected in series to a $300 \ V$ battery as shown in the figure. Then:

  • A
    $X$ will glow brighter.
  • B
    The resistance of $Y$ is greater than that of $X$.
  • C
    The heat produced in $Y$ is greater than that in $X$.
  • D
    The potential difference across $X$ is less than that across $Y$.
