First, a set of ${n}$ equal resistors of $10\; \Omega$ each are connected in series to a battery of emf $20\; {V}$ and internal resistance $10\; \Omega .$ A current $I$ is observed to flow. Then, the $n$ resistors are connected in parallel to the same battery. It is observed that the current is increased $20$ times, then the value of $n$ is .... .
If three resistors of resistance $2 \,\Omega$, $4 \,\Omega$ and $5 \,\Omega$ are connected in parallel then the total resistance of the combination will be
Two cells of $e.m.f.$ $E_1$ and $E_2$ are joined in series and the balancing length of the potentiometer wire is $625$ $cm$. If the terminals of $E_1$ are reversed, the balancing length obtained is $125 \,cm$. Given $E_2 > E_1$, the ratio $E_1: E_2$ will be
A $6\, volt$ battery of negligible internal resistance resistance is connected across a uniform wire $AB$ of length $100\,cm$. The positive terminal of another battery of $emf$ $4\,V$ and internal resistance $1\,\Omega $ is joined to the point $A$ as shown in fig. Take the potential at $B$ to be zero. At which point $D$ of the wire $AB$, from left the potential is equal to the potential at $C$ ? ...................... $cm$ (approximately)
A cylindrical wire of radius $0.5 \,mm$ and conductivity $5 \times 10^{7}\, S / m$ is subjected to an electric field of $10 \,mV / m .$ The expected value of current in the wire will be $x ^{3} \,\pi mA$. The value of $x$ is ......
If resistance of the filament increases with temperature, what will be power dissipated in a $220\, V- 100\, W$ lamp when connected to $110\, V$ power supply
