A circuit consists of a battery E, a resistor R and two light bulbs X and Y connected as shown in the given figure. If the filament of the light bulb X burns out, then select the correct statement about the light bulb Y.
AIt is turned off.
BIt gets dimmer.
CIt gets brighter.
DIts brightness does not change.
d?
Ans 1:
Class : Class 6
The answer should be D. When one bulb goes out in a parallel circuit, the brightness of the other bulbs remains unaffected, as each bulb has its own independent path for current flow, so the remaining bulbs continue to shine at their normal brightness; essentially, nothing changes to the brightness of the other bulbs.
