An incandescent lightbulb rated at 60 W will dissipate 60 W as heat and light when connected across a 100 V ideal voltage source. A 100-W bulb will dissipate 100 W when connected across the same source. If the bulbs are connected in series across the same source, determine the power that either one of the two bulbs will dissipate.
Find: The power dissipated by the series of the two light bulbs. Assumptions: The resistance of each bulb doesn’t vary when connected in series.
