Which bulb X or Y is brighter, and which has higher resistance?
There are factors that affect resistance of the filament (conductor): length cross-sectional area Resistivity For our syllabus, brightness of the bulb depends on power. The higher the power, the brighter the bulb. e.g. a 100 W bulb is brighter than a 60 W bulb, View the video to understand the concepts better Video

2016PPP1Q5 Camera in space station orbiting the Earth
Answer: Option A Many have the misconception that as the astronaut and camera are floating and weightless, there is no gravitational force acting on them. Actually both are inside the gravitational field of the Earth, and there is gravitational field strength, hence there is gravitational force acting on them towards the Earth. But as together with the station, they are all ‘free falling’, hence no normal contact force on the astronaut and camera, hence give the feeling of we
