When current supplied by a cell to a circuit is $0.3 \,A$, its terminal potential difference is $0.9 \,V$. When the current supplied becomes $0.25 \,A$, its terminal potential difference becomes $1.0 \,V$. The internal resistance of the cell is ............ $\Omega$
Two wires each of radius of cross section $r$ but of different materials are connected together end to end (in series). If the densities of charge carriers in the two wires are in the ratio $1 : 4$, the drift velocity of electrons in the two wires will be in the ratio:
When a piece of aluminium wire of finite length is drawn through a series of dies to reduce its diameter to half its original value, its resistance will become ........ times
