Two electric bulbs marked 25W – 220V and 100W – 220V are connected in series to a 440Vsupply. Which of the bulbs will fuse?

Answer»

 25 W



When CONNECTED in series, the VOLTAGES divide in them in the RATIO of their resistances. The voltage of 440 V devides in such a way that voltage ACROSS 25 w bulb will be more than 220 V. Hence 25 w bulb will fuse.
