PART A)
Here we know that
potential difference across the wire is

resistance of wire is

now by ohm's law



Part b)
Power rating is defined as rate of electrical energy
it is defined as

now we have


Answer:
False
Explanation:
<em>If one of the bulbs is removed from the series, the other bulb will not come on at all.</em>
This is because the removal of one of the bulbs would interrupt the flow of current though the entire circuit.
Hence, that the other one will get brighter if one of two bulbs in a circuit is removed from its socket is not true.
So looking at the problem, you are going to want to start by finding a common denominator (1) in this case: yb, and combining like terms (2). You are then going to want to multiply both sides by (yb) as the reciprocal to the fractions (3).
1) 3x 6g
---- = ---
y b
2) 3xb 6gy
------ = -----
yb yb
3) 3xb 6gy
(yb) ------ = -----
yb yb
which becomes: 3xb = 6gy
So after this, things become much more simple, as all you have to do is isolate the (x), which can be done by dividing the entire equation by (3b).
3xb 6gy
----- = -----
3b 3b
where you will then find your answer of:
2gy
x = ----- (simplified by the GCM of 3)
b
