Answer

Turn on the right switch and leave it on for two minutes. After two minutes, turn on the middle switch and leave it on for one minute. When that minute is up, turn off both switches and enter the room. One light bulb will be hot (1st Switch) and one will be warm (2nd switch). The cold bulb will correspond to the switch you didn’t turn on.
