b Current continues to flow in a super conducting coil even after switch off because at critical temperature, its resistance is zero so there is no hinderance to current flow.
Meissner effect says that at critical temperature magnetic field inside the conductor is zero i.e, $B = 0$ but this does not explain assertion.

When a wire of uniform cross-section $a$, length $l$ and resistance $R$ is bent into a complete circle, resistance between any two of diametrically opposite points will be
Two wires $A$ and $B$ of the same material, having radii in the ratio $1: 2$ carry currents in the ratio $4: 1$. The ratio of drift speed of electrons in $A$ and $B$ is
The effective resistance of a parallel connection that consists of four wires of equal length, equal area of cross-section and same material is $0.25\, \Omega$. What will be the effective resistance if they are connected in series ? (In $\Omega$)
An electrical circuit consists of ten $100 \,\Omega$ resistors. Out of these $10$ resistors, a group of $n _1$ resistors are connected in parallel and another group of $n _2$ resistors are separately connected in parallel. These two groups are then connected in series and this combination is connected to a voltage source of $100 \,V$. If the net current though the circuit is $2.5 \,A$. The values of $n _1$ and $n _2$ are
A wheatstone bridge is used to determine the value of unknown resistance $X$ by adjusting the variable resistance $Y$ as shown in the figure. For the most precise measurement of $X$, the resistances $P$ and $Q$:
