Question

A discharging capacitor is used to light bulbs of different types and at different locations as shown, Which of the following, if any, will cause the current in Bulb A to be different than in Bulb B? Explain. Bulb A is rated at a higher wattage than Bulb B. Bulb A is connected directly to the negative plate, while Bulb B is connected to the positive plate. Bulb A is closer (connected through less wire) to the capacitor plates than Bulb B. None of these. Which of the following, if any, will cause Bulb A to light before Bulb B? Bulb B to light before Bulb A? Explain. Bulb A is rated at a higher wattage than Bulb B. Bulb A is connected directly to the negative plate, while Bulb B is connected to the positive plate. Bulb A is closer to the capacitor plates than Bulb B. None of these.

Explanation / Answer

a)

These are incandescent lamps these act as a resistors so current flow of an conductor all the point always equal through a resister or conductor and that will not depent on values or length.
All the place of current path equal to same.

answer: non of these.

b)light only depend on current flow and voltage rating but here current flow same and they did not mention the voltage so other reasons will not cause to light a before b.

answer :non of these.
