Two electric bulbs rated P1 watt V volts and P2 watt V volts are connected in parallel and V volts are applied to it. The total Power will be

a
P1+P2 watt
b
P1+P2 watt
c
P1P2P1+P2 watt
d
P1+P2P1P2 watt

detailed solution

Correct option is A

If resistances of bulbs are R1 and R2, respectively, then in parallel 1RP =  1R1+1R2⇒  1V2Pp = 1V2P1+1V2P2 ⇒  PP = P1+P2
