Explain which one burned out and why

Reference no: EM13499951

You have two 120V light bulbs, one 25W and one 100W, that are normally connected in parallel with 120V across each. Your friend had what seemed like a good idea which was to connect them in series across a 240V power line. However, one of them burned out immediately. Which one burned out and why? Explain in 100 words or less. Thanks!
