Four identical bulbs are connected to a battery as shown in the figure. After the switch S is closed,

a
Brightness of all bulbs will increase
b
Brightness of all bulbs will decrease
c
Brightness of all bulbs will remain unchanged
d
Brightness of B1 and B4 will increase and brightness of B2 and B3 will decrease.

detailed solution

Correct option is C

initially current through each bulb,i1=V2RAfter S is closed, equivalent resistance of the circuit, RC=R×RR+R+R×RR+R=RSo, current through each bulb,  i2=12VR=V2R=i1Since brightness ∝i2  and i2=i1. brightness of the bulbs remains unchanged.
