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}$

Power dissipated across the $8\,\Omega $ resistor in the circuit shown here is $2\, watt$. The power dissipated in watt units across the $3\,\Omega $ resistor is
A copper wire of length $1\, m$ and radius $1\, mm$ is joined in series with an iron wire of length $2\, m$ and radius $3\, mm$ and a current is passed through the wires. The ratio of the current density in the copper and iron wires is
In the circuit shown below, the cell has an $e.m.f.$ of $10\,V$ and internal resistance of $1\, ohm$. The other resistances are shown in the figure. The potential difference ${V_A} - {V_B}$ is ................ $V$
Two electric bulbs rated ${P_1}\,watt$ $V\, volts$ and ${P_2}\, watt$ $V\, volts$ are connected in parallel and $V\, volts$ are applied to it. The total power will be
