Current $I$ is flowing through the two materials having electrical conductivities $\sigma_1$ and $\sigma_2$ respectively $(\sigma_1 > \sigma_2 )$ as shown in the figure. The total amount of charge at the junction of the materials is
In the circuit shown, $n$-identical resistors $R$ are connected in parallel $(n > 1)$ and the combination is connected in series to another resistor $R_0$. In the adjoining circuit $n$ resistors of resistance $R$ are all connected in series alongwith $R_0$. The batteries in both circuits are identical and net power dissipated in the $n$ resistors in both circuits is same. The ratio $R_0 / R$ is
You are given several identical resistances each of value $R = 10\,\Omega $ and each capable of carrying maximum current of $1\, ampere$. It is required to make a suitable combination of these resistances to produce a resistance of $5\,\Omega $ which can carry a current of $4\, amperes$. The minimum number of resistances of the type $R$ that will be required for this job
A bulb of $100\, W$ is connected in parallel with an ideal inductance of $1\, H$. This arrangement is connected to a $90\,V$ battery through a switch. On pressing the switch, the
Masses of three wires of copper are in the ratio of $1 : 3 : 5$ and their lengths are in the ratio of $5:3:1.$ The ratio of their electrical resistances are
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 figure shows a tetrahedron, each side of which has a resistance $r$ If a battery is connected between any two points of the tetrahedron, then identify the correct statement $(s)$.
