A three-way lightbulb can produce 50 W, 100 W, or 150 W,
at 120 V. Such a bulb contains two filaments that can be
connected to the 120 V individually or in parallel (Fig. 19–74).
(a) Describe how the
connections to the
two filaments are
made to give each of
the three wattages.
(b) What must be the
resistance of each
filament?
