B$5.0$
b (b) Total power $P = (800 + 3 \times 100)$
Also $P = Vi$ $ \Rightarrow $ $1100 = 220 \times i$ $ \Rightarrow $ $i = 5\,A$

A $5\,^oC$ rise in temperature is observed in a conductor by passing a current. When the current is doubled the rise in temperature will be approximately ........... $^oC$
A student uses the resistance of a known resistor $(1 \,\Omega)$ to calibrate a voltmeter and an ammeter using the circuits shown below. The student measures the ratio of the voltage to current to be $1 \times 10^3 \,\Omega$ in circuit $(a)$ and $0.999 \,\Omega$ in circuit $(b)$. From these measurements, the resistance (in $\Omega$ ) of the voltmeter and ammeter are found to be close to
$A$ battery of $\mathrm{emf}$ $E$ and internal resistance $r$ is connected across a resistance $R$. Resistance $R$ can be adjusted to any value greater than or equal to zero. Agraph is plotted between the current $(i)$ passing through the resistance and potential difference $(V) $ across it. Select the correct alternative $(s)$.
Two resistances are connected in two gaps of a meter bridge. The balance point is $20\, cm$ from the zero end. A resistance of $15\, ohms$ is connected in series with the smaller of the two. The null point shifts to $40\, cm$. The value of the smaller resistance in $ohms$ is
A cell of $emf$ $E$ and internal resistance $r$ is connected in series with an external resistacne $nr.$ Then, the ratio of the terminal potential difference to $emf$ is
The heat generated through $2 \,ohm$ and $8\, ohm$ resistances separately, when a condenser of $200\,\mu F$ capacity charged to $200\, V$ is discharged one by one, will be
When current supplied by a cell to a circuit is $0.3 \,A$, its terminal potential difference is $0.9 \,V$. When the current supplied becomes $0.25 \,A$, its terminal potential difference becomes $1.0 \,V$. The internal resistance of the cell is ............ $\Omega$
Resistance in the two gaps of a meter bridge are $10\, ohm$ and $30\, ohm$ respectively. If the resistances are interchanged the balance point shifts by.............. $cm$
