B$6.3$
b (b) Electric power consumed by kettle $P = 220 \times 4\,W$
Heat required
$H = 1000 \times 1\,(100 - 20) = 1000 \times 80\,\,cal$$ = 4200 \times 80\,\,J$
$P = \frac{H}{t} \Rightarrow \,H = P \times t$
$220 \times 4 \times t = 4200 \times 80$ $ \Rightarrow $ $t = 6.3\,\,$ $minutes$

A battery of $6\, volts$ is connected to the terminals of a three meter long wire of uniform thickness and resistance of the order of $100\,\Omega $. The difference of potential between two points separated by $50\,cm$ on the wire will be .......... $V$
Temperature coefficient at $0\,^oC$ is $0.00125\,^oC^{-1}$. At a temperature of $25\,^oC$ its resistance is $1\,\Omega $. Find the temperature at which resistance is $1.2\,\Omega $
$A$ wire of length $L$ and $3$ identical cells of negligible internal resistances are connected in series. Due to the current, the temperature of the wire is raised by $\Delta T$ in time $t. N$ number of similar cells is now connected in series with a wire of the same material and cross section but of length $2L$. The temperature of the wire is raised by the same amount $\Delta T$ in the same time $t$. The value of $N$ is :
An electric bulb of $500 \,watt$ at $100\, volt$ is used in a circuit having a $200\, {V}$ supply. Calculate the resistance ${R}$ to be connected in series with the bulb so that the power delivered by the bulb is $500\, {W}$. (in $\Omega$)
When a current of $2\, A$ flows in a battery from negative to positive terminal, the potential difference across it is $12\, V$. If a current of $3\, A$ flowing in the opposite direction produces a potential difference of $15\, V$, the $emf$ of the battery 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
