290. Which of the following metal (shown by its symbol) is generally used for making filaments of bulb?

1. Fe
2. An
3. Ag
4. W

Option “D” is correct
Most incandescent bulbs use tungsten (W) as a filament element. Tungsten is an inexpensive metal that has a long lifespan as a filament. It is a suitable option for incandescent bulbs because it has an extremely high melting point and is flexible. Pliable tungsten filaments are easily formed and hold up well against temperatures as high as 4,500 degrees Fahrenheit.
