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
The circuit below is used to heat water kept in a bucket. Assuming heat loss only by Newton's law of cooling, the variation in the temperature of the water in the bucket as a function of time is depicted by
Drift speed of electrons, when $1.5\, A$ of current flows in a copper wire of cross section $5\, mm^2$, is $v$. If the electron density in copper is $9 \times 10^{28}\, m^3$ the value of $v$ in $mm/s$ is close to (Take charge of electron to be $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\, C$)
A student was trying to construct the circuit shown in the figure below marked $(a)$, but ended up constructing the circuit marked $(b)$. Realising her mistake, she corrected the circuit, but to her surprise, the output voltage (across $R$ ) did not change. The value of resistance $R$ is ............ $\Omega$
In a potentiometer circuit a cell of $EMF$ $1.5\, {V}$ gives balance point at $36\, {cm}$ length of wire. If another cell of $EMF$ $2.5\, {V}$ replaces the first cell, then at what length of the wire, the balance point occurs ? (in $cm$)
When the resistance $R$ (indicated in the figure below) is changed from $1 \,k \Omega$. to $10 \,k \Omega$, the current flowing through the resistance $R'$ does not change. What is the value of the resistor $R'?$
A wire of resistance $10$ $\Omega$ is bent to form a circle. $P$ and $Q$ are points on the circumference of the circle dividing it into a quadrant and are connected to a Battery of $3\, V$ and internal resistance $1$ $\Omega$ as shown in the figure. The currents in the two parts of the circle are
Five cells each of emf $E$ and internal resistance $r$ are connected in series. Due to oversight one cell is connected wrongly. The equivalent internal resistance of the combination is ........... $r$
To verify Ohm's law, a student connects the voltmeter across the battery as, shown in the figure. The measured voltage is plotted as a function of the current, and the following graph is obtained If $V_0$ is almost zero, identify the correct statement
