The circuit shown here is used to compare the emf of two cells $E_1$ and $E_2 (E_1 > E_2)$. The null point is at $C$ when the galvanometer is connected to $E_1$. When the galvanometer is connected to $E_2$, the null point will be
In the box shown current $i$ enters at $H$ and leaves at $C$. If $i_{AB} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{6}$ , $i_{DC} = \frac{{\text{2i}}}{3}$ ,$i_{HA} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{2} , i_{GF} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{6} , i_{HE} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{6}$ , choose the branch in which current is zero
The resistance of the filament of a lamp increases with the increase in temperature. A lamp rated $100\, W, 220\, V$ is connected across $220\, V$ power supply. If the voltage drops by $10\%$ then the power of lamp will be
An electric toaster has resistance of $60\ \Omega$ at room temperature $\left(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)$. The toaster is connected to a $220 \mathrm{~V}$ supply. If the current flowing through it reaches $2.75 \mathrm{~A}$, the temperature attained by toaster is around : (if $\alpha=2 \times 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ )
Four wires of the same diameter are connected in turn between two points, maintained at a constant potential difference. Their resistivities are; $\rho $ and $L$ (wire $1$ )., $1.2\,\rho $ and $1.2\,L$ (wire $2$ ), $0.9\,\rho $ and $0.9\,L$ (wire $3$ ) and $\rho $ and $1.5\,L$ (wire $4$ ). Rank the wires according to the rates at which energy is dissipated as heat, greatest first
Three copper rods are subjected to different potential difference. Compare the drift speed of electrons through them. Assume that all $3$ are at the same temperature.
Consider a metallic cube of edge length $L$. Its resistance, $R$, measured across its opposite faces is $R =\frac{ m _{ e } v }{ ne ^2 L ^2}$, where $n$ is the number density and $v$ is the drift speed of electrons in the cube, and $e$ and $m _{ e }$ are the charge and mass of an electron respectively. Assuming the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron to be $L$, the maximum resistance of the sample is closest to ............. $\,\Omega$ $\left(e=1.60 \times 10^{-19} \,C ; m _{ e }=9.11 \times 10^{-31} \,kg\right.$; Planck's constant, $h=6.63 \times 10^{-34} \,Js$ )
