  • A
    $12.6$
  • B
    $4.2$
  • C
    $6.3$

Two electric bulbs are connected one by one across a potential difference $V$. At that time,the power consumed in them is $P_1$ and $P_2$ respectively. Now,if the potential difference $V$ is applied across the series combination of these bulbs,what will be the total power consumed?

Assertion : When current through a bulb decreases by $0.5\%$,the glow of bulb decreases by $1\%$.
Reason : Glow (Power) is directly proportional to the square of current.
