c Since $H \propto {i^2},$ so on doubling the current, the heat produced and hence the rise in temperature becomes four times.

In a meter bridge experiment $\mathrm{S}$ is a standard resistance. $\mathrm{R}$ is a resistance wire. It is found that balancing length is $l=25 \;\mathrm{cm} .$ If $\mathrm{R}$ is replaced by a wire of half length and half diameter that of $\mathrm{R}$ of same material, then the balancing distance $\left.l^{\prime} \text { (in } \mathrm{cm}\right)$ will now be
In a meter bridge experiment null point is obtained at $20\, cm$ from one end of the wire when resistance $X$ is balanced against another resistance $Y$. If $X < Y$, then where will be the new position of the null point from the same end, if one decides to balance a resistance of $4X$ against $Y$ ........... $cm$
The three resistances $A, B$ and $C$ have values $3R, 6R$ and $R$ respectively. When some potential difference is applied across the network, the thermal powers dissipated by $A, B$ and $C$ are in the ratio
When connected across the terminals of a cell, a voltmeter measures $5\,V$ and a connected ammeter measures $10\, A$ of current. A resistance of $2\, ohms$ is connected across the terminals of the cell. The current flowing through this resistance will be ............ $A$
Two bulbs one of $200$ $\mathrm{volts},$ $60$ $\mathrm{watts}$ and the other of $200$ $\mathrm{volts},$ $100$ $\mathrm{watts}$ are connected in series to a $200$ $\mathrm{volt}$ supply. The power consumed will be ................ $\mathrm{watt}$
In the circuit shown in figure, the current drawn from the battery is $4\,A$. If $10 \,\Omega$ resistor is replaced by $20\,\Omega$ resistor, then current drawn from the circuit will be .............. $A$
In the given figure $R_1=10 \Omega, R_2=8 \Omega, R_3=4 \Omega$ and $R_4=8 \Omega$. Battery is ideal with emf $12 \mathrm{~V}$. Equivalent resistant of the circuit and current supplied by battery are respectively.
In a potentiometer circuit there is a cell of $e.m.f.$ $2\, volt$, a resistance of $5\, ohm$ and a wire of uniform thickness of length $1000\, cm$ and resistance $15\, ohm$. The potential gradient in the wire is
