    A 6.0 volt battery is connected to two light bulbs as shown in figure. Light bulb 1 has resistance 3 ohm while light bulb 2 has resistance 6 ohm. Battery has negligible internal resistance. Which bulb will glow brighter?     JEE Main  Online Paper (Held On 19  May  2012)

    A) Bulb 1 will glow more first and then its brightness will become less than bulb 2

    B)                        Bulbl

    C)                        Bulb2

    D)                        Both glow equally

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    Total resistance \[=\frac{6\times 3}{6+3}=2\Omega \] Current in circuit \[=\frac{6}{2}=3A\] Therefore current through bulb 1 is 2A and bulb 2 is 1A So bulb 1 will glow more
