A battery is connected first across the series combination and then across the parallel combination, of three resistances R, 2R and 3R. In which of the three resistances will power dissipated be maximum in the two cases ? Justify your answer.
Assertion (A) : When three electric bulbs of power 200 W, 100 W and 50 W are connected in series to a source, the power consumed by the 50 W bulb is maximum. Reason (R) : In a series circuit, current is the same through each bulb, but the potential difference across each bulb is different.
