A resistor R1 dissipates the power P when connected to a certain generator. If a resistor,R2 is put in series with R1, the power dissipated by R1,

a
decreases
b
increases
c
remains the same
d
any of the above depending upon the relative values of R1, and R2

detailed solution

Correct option is A

P=V2R∴ P1=V2R1 and P2=V2R1+R2P2
