If R1 and R2 be the resistance of the filament of 40 W and 60 W respectively operating 220 V, then

R1 R2 R1 = R2
R1 R2

R2 > R1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we want to select which of the relations best gives the answer.

Mathematically;

Power = Voltage * current

But current = voltage/resistance

Power = voltage * voltage/resistance

P = V^2/R

For 40 W

40 = (220)^2 * R1

R1 = 40/(220)^2

For 60 W

60 = (220)^2 * R2

R2 = 60/(220)^2

Mathematically, since we have the same denominator (220)^2 but with 60 greater than 40, that automatically translates to the fact that the value of R2 is greater than the value of R1( You can finish evaluating each of the expressions using a calculator).
