Why does tungsten metal used to make solenoid type coil in an electric bulb?
उत्तर
Tungsten metal is used to make solenoid type coil in an electric bulb because :
1)Tungsten mental has high resistance and high melting point (nearly 34220C)
2) Because of current it gets heated at high temperature and emits light.
