A wire of resistance $12\,ohms$ per meter is bent to form a complete circle of radius $10\, cm.$ The resistance between its two diametrically opposite points, $A$ and $B$ as shown in the figure is
A$3\,Ω$
B$6\,Ω$
C$6$ $\pi $ $Ω$
D$0.6$ $\pi $ $Ω$

D$0.6$ $\pi $ $Ω$
d Wire of length $2\, \pi \times 0.1\, \mathrm{m}$ of $12 \,\Omega / \mathrm{m}$ is bent to a circle.
Resistance of each part
$=12 \times \pi \times 0.1=1.2\, \pi \,\Omega$
$\therefore \quad$ Resistance between $A$ and $B = 0.6\,\pi \Omega .$

The same mass of copper is drawn into two wires $1\, mm$ and $2\, mm$ thick. Two wires are connected in series and current is passed through them. Heat produced in the wire is in the ratio
The resistances of the platinum wire of a platinum resistance thermometer at the ice point and steam point are $8 \Omega$ and $10 \Omega$ respectively. After inserting in a hot bath of temperature $400^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$, the resistance of platinum wire is:
Two sources of equal $emf$ are connected to an external resistance $R$. The internal resistances of the two sources are ${R_1}$ and ${R_2}\,({R_2} > {R_1})$. If the potential difference across the source having internal resistance ${R_2}$ is zero, then
In the experiment of $Ohm's law,$ a potential difference of $5.0\, V$ is applied across the end of a conductor of length $10.0\, cm$ and diameter of $5.00\, mm .$ The measured current in the conductor is $2.00\, A$. The maximum permissible percentage error in the resistivity of the conductor is
A wire has resistance $12\,\Omega $. It is bent in the form of a circle. The effective resistance between the two points on any diameter is equal to ................ $\Omega$
Two coils require $20$ minutes and $60$ minutes respectively to produce same amount of heat energy when connected separately to the same source. If they are connected in parallel arrangement to the same source; the time required to produce same amount of heat by the combination of coils, will be________ $min$
A uniform wire of resistance $R$ is uniformly compressed along its length, until its radius becomes $n$ times the original radius. Now resistance of the wire becomes
