d Heat produced $ = \frac{{{V^2}}}{R}t$
i.e. when voltage is halved, heat produced becomes one-fourth. Hence time taken to heat the water becomes four times.

Two resistance wires on joining in parallel the resultant resistance is $\frac{6}{5}\,ohms$. One of the wire breaks, the effective resistance is $2\,ohms$. The resistance of the broken wire is ............ $ohm$
When a resistance of $2\,ohm$ is connected across the terminals of a cell, the current is $0.5$ amperes. When the resistance is increased to $5\, ohm$, the current is $0.25\, amperes$. The internal resistance of the cell is ............. $ohm$
Suppose a current carrying wire has a cross-sectional area that, gradually become smaller along the wire, has the shape of a very long cone as shown in figure. Choose the correct statement
Consider the ladder network shown in figure. What should be the value of resistance $R$, so that effective resistance between $A$ and $B$ becomes independent of number of elements in the combination is ............. $\Omega$
In the circuit shown in the figure, the switch $S$ is initially open and the capacitor is initially uncharged. $ I_1, I_2$ and $I_3$ represent the current in the resistance $2\,\Omega , 4\,\Omega $ and $8\,\Omega$ respectively.
