ln the circuit in the figure, if no current flows through the galvanometer when the key $K$ is closed, the bridge is balanced. The balancing condition for bridge is
Eight copper wire of length $l$ and diameter $d$ are joined in parallel to form a single composite conductor of resistance $R$. If a single copper wire of length $2\,l$ have the same resistance $(R)$ then its diameter will be $.....d$.
The circuit diagram shown consists of a large number of element (each element has two resistors $R_1$ and $R_2$). The resistance of the resistors in each subsequent element differs by $a$ factor of $K = 1/2$ from the resistance of the resistors in the previous elements. The equivalent reistance between $A$ and $B$ shown in figure is :
A meter bridge set up as shown to determine end correction at $A$ and $B$ . When a resistance of $15\,\Omega $ is used in left gap and of $20\,\Omega $ in right gap, then null point comes at a distance $42\ cm$ from $A$ . When these resistances are interchanged null point comes at a distance $57\ cm$ from $A$ . Values of end corrections are
At what rate the potential difference between the plates of a capacitor be changed to set up a displacement current of $1\, A$ in a capacitor of $2\,\mu F$ ?
As shown in the figure, a network of resistors is connected to a battery of $2\,V$ with an internal resistance of $3\,\Omega$. The currents through the resistors $R_4$ and $R_5$ are $I_4$ and $I_5$ respectively. The values of $I_4$ and $I_5$ are :
