    The tungsten filaments of two electric bulbs are of the same length. If one of them gives \[25\text{ }W\]power and the other \[60\text{ }W\]power, then

    A)  both the filaments are of same thickness

    B)  \[25\text{ }W\]bulb has thicker filament

    C)  \[60\text{ }W\] bulb has thicker filament

    D)  both the filaments have same cross-section area

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[{{P}_{rated}}\propto \frac{1}{R}\] and \[R\propto \frac{1}{{{(thickness\,of\,filament)}^{2}}}\] So,  \[{{P}_{rated}}\propto {{(thickness\text{ }of\text{ }filament)}^{2}}\]
