Step 1
Defined terms:
- The potential difference in the circuit is V
- The current is I
- The resistance is R
- The power is P
Statement A:
No, the given statement is wrong. when two bulbs are connected in series then due to the different potential difference in the bulbs the current is different.
From the following mathematical expression, we can clearly understand it:
, here when V changes, I will change
