प्रश्न
Why is that the same current flowing through the bulb heats up the filament, while the leads are not heated up?
उत्तर
The leads are much thicker than the filament wire. Thus the resistance of the leads is much smaller than that of filament wire. So with the same current, the filament gets heated while the leads are not.
