Current through other lamp is 1 A.

Explanation:

In this question, it is given that, two lamps are connected in series in a circuit. The current through one lamp is 1 A. We need to find the current through the other lamp.

In series combination of resistors, the current throughout the entire circuit remains the same while the potential difference divides.

As a result, in this case the current through the other lamp is also equal to 1 A. Hence, this is the required solution.
