  • A
    more than $1 \,kW$
  • B
    less than $1 \,kW$,but not zero
  • C
    $1 \,kW$
  • D
    $0 \,kW$

Four wires of the same diameter are connected in turn between two points,maintained at a constant potential difference. Their resistivities and lengths are: $\rho$ and $L$ (wire $1$),$1.2\rho$ and $1.2L$ (wire $2$),$0.9\rho$ and $0.9L$ (wire $3$),and $\rho$ and $1.5L$ (wire $4$). Rank the wires according to the rates at which energy is dissipated as heat,greatest first.

When two electric bulbs of $40\, W$ and $60\, W$ are connected in parallel,then:

Two electric bulbs are connected one by one across a potential difference $V$. At that time,the power consumed in them is $P_1$ and $P_2$ respectively. Now,if the potential difference $V$ is applied across the series combination of these bulbs,what will be the total power consumed?
