B$2$
b (b) $i = \frac{E}{{R + r}} \Rightarrow 1 = \frac{4}{{2 + r}} = r = 2\,\Omega $
Short circuit when terminals of battery connected directly then current flows which is ${i_{SC}} = \frac{E}{r} = \frac{4}{2} = 2\,A$.

Two wires of same metal have the same length but their cross-sections are in the ratio $3:1$. They are joined in series. The resistance of the thicker wire is $10\,\Omega $. The total resistance of the combination will be ............. $\Omega$
The resistance of a wire is $20\, ohms$. It is so stretched that the length becomes three times, then the new resistance of the wire will be ............. $ohms$
In the circuit shown in figure, the power which is dissipated as heat in the $6\,\Omega $ resistor is $6\,W$. What is the value of resistance $R$ in the circuit? ................ $\Omega$
$10$ resistors each of resistance $10\,\Omega$ can be connected in such as to get maximum and minimum equivalent resistance. The ratio of maximum and minimum equivalent resistance will be $..........$.
The current density is a solid cylindrical wire of radius $R ,$ as a function of radial distance $r$ is given by $J ( r )= J _{0}\left(1-\frac{ r }{ R }\right) .$ The total current in the radial region $r =0$ to $r =\frac{ R }{4}$ will be
In an experiment, the resistance of a material is plotted as a function of temperature (in some range). As shown in the figure, it is a straight line. One may conclude that:
A battery of $emf$ $10\,V$ is connected to resistances as shown in the figure. The potential difference between $A$ and $B,\,\,(V_A -V_B)$ is ................ $V$
In the circuit shown below, the resistances are given (in $\Omega$ ) and the battery is assumed ideal with emf equal to $3.0 \,V$. The resistor that dissipates the most power is
