GIVE REASON PLEASE

Answers

Answered by poddarkushaagra22000

Answer:

The reason tungsten is used is because it has the highest melting temperature of any element at 3600 K.

To generate a lot of heat you need a big resistance. Resistance(R) is dependent on resistivity (ρ) but also on the length (l) of the wire and the width (w).
