The second bulb produces more light because the lateral surface area for the second bulb is larger compared to the first one.
What is a cylinder?
In geometry, it is defined as the three-dimensional shape having two circular shapes at a distance called the height of the cylinder.
We know the volume of the cylinder is given by:
[tex]\rm V = \pi r^2 h[/tex]
Lateral surface area = 2πrh
The lateral surface area of the first bulb = 2π(1)(9)
= 18π square inches
The lateral surface area of the second bulb = 2π(3/4)(23)
= 34.5π square inches
The lateral surface area for the second bulb is larger compared to the first one.
Thus, the second bulb produces more light because the lateral surface area for the second bulb is larger compared to the first one.
