A
Zero charge
a (a) As steady current is flowing through the conductor, hence the number of electrons entering from one end and outgoing from the other end of any segment is equal. Hence charge will be zero.

In the given figure, a battery of emf $E$ is connnected across a conductor $P Q$ of length $'Y'$ and different area of cross-sections having radii $r_{1}$ and $r_{2}\left(r_{2}\,<\,r_{1}\right)$.
Choose the correct option as one moves from $P$ to $Q$ :
The circuit shown here is used to compare the $e.m.f.$ of two cells ${E_1}$ and ${E_2}({E_1} > {E_2})$. The null point is at $C$ when the galvanometer is connected to ${E_1}$. When the galvanometer is connected to ${E_2}$, the null point will be
In the balanced condition, the values of the resistances of the four arms of a Wheatstone bridge are shown in the figure below. The resistance $R_3$ has temperature coefficient $0.0004{ }^{\circ} C ^{-1}$. If the temperature of $R_3$ is increased by $100{ }^{\circ} C$, the voltage developed between $S$ and $T$ will be. . . . . . . volt.
$12$ cells each having same $emf$ are connected in series with some cells wrongly connected. The arrangement is connected in series with an ammeter and two cells which are in series. Current is $3 \,A$ when cells and battery aid each other and is $2\, A$ when cells and battery oppose each other. The number of cells wrongly connected is
In the adjoining circuit, the battery $E_1$ has an $e.m.f.$ of $12\, volts$ and zero internal resistance, while the battery $E_2$ has an $e.m.f.$ of $2\, volts$. If the galvanometer $G$ reads zero, then the value of the resistance $X$ in $ohms$ is
A ring is made of a wire having a resistance $R_0 = 12 \,\,\Omega$. Find the points $A$ and $B,$ as shown in the figure, at which a current carrying conductor should be connected so that the resistance $R$ of the sub circuit between these points is equal to $\frac{8}{3}\,\Omega$.
When a resistor of $11 \,\Omega$ is connected in series with an electric cell, the current flowing in it is $0.5\, A$. Instead, when a resistor of $5 \,\Omega$ is connected to the same electric cell in series, the current increases by $0.4\, A$. The internal resistance of the cell is ................ $\Omega$
