If two different wattage lamp connected in series which lamp will glow brighter and why?
I was also searching for the same but according to me the lamps with higher wattage should glow brighter. We know that, P=VI In series connection current is same through all the lamps but voltage across each lamp depends on the wattage of the bulb. So the bulb with higher wattage will draw more voltage and glow brighter.AnswerUnfortunately, the previous answer is incorrect, although it seems* to be the logical answer! The higher-wattage lamp has a lower resistance than the lower-wattage lamp. So, when they are connected in series, the larger voltage drop (IR)will appear across the lower-wattage lamp. As power is proportional to the square of the voltage, it is the lower-wattage lamp that will be the brighter.[*Many people have the mistaken belief that a higher-wattage lamp has a higher resistance than a lower-wattage lamp. That's the wrong way around!]
