A$0.5 $
a Since potential difference for full length of wire $=$ $2\, V$
$P.D.$ per unit length of wire $ = \frac{2}{4} = 0.5\,\frac{V}{m}$

The two ends of a uniform conductor are joined to a cell of $e.m.f.$ $E$ and some internal resistance. Starting from the midpoint $P$ of the conductor, we move in the direction of current and return to $P$. The potential $V$ at every point on the path is plotted against the distance covered $(x)$. Which of the following graphs best represents the resulting curve
Two heaters $A$ and $B$ have power rating of $1 \mathrm{~kW}$ and $2 \mathrm{~kW}$, respectively. Those two are first connected in series and then in parallel to a fixed power source. The ratio of power outputs for these two cases is:
Resistances of $6\, ohm$ each are connected in the manner shown in adjoining figure. With the current $0.5\,ampere$ as shown in figure, the potential difference ${V_P} - {V_Q}$ is .............. $V$
