Questions  

A" B, C are identical bulbs. How does the brightness of A and B change when the switch S is closed ?

a
The brightness of A increases and that of B decreases
b
The brightness of A does not change and that of B decreases
c
The brightness of both A and B decreases
d
The brightness of A increases and that of B does not . change

detailed solution

Correct option is A

When the switch 5 is closed the resistance C comes in parallel with the resistance B, As B and C becomes in parallel, the resistance of combination is halved. As a result the resistance of the circuit decreases and current increases. But the current through B decreases. Hence the brightness of A increases and that of decreases.
