    The resistance of an incandescent lamp is           [KCET 2002]

    A)            Greater when switched off   

    B)            Smaller when switched on

    C)            Greater when switched on   

    D)            The same whether it is switched off or switched on

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                 \[R\propto \frac{1}{\tau };\] where \[\tau \]= Relaxation time. When lamp is switched on, temperature of filament increase, hence \[\tau \]decrease so R increases
