a Resistance wire $R = \rho \frac {I}{A}$, where $\rho $ is resistivity of material which does not depend on the geometry of wire. Since when wire is bent resistivity, length and area of cross-section do not change, therefore resistance of wire also remain same.

A wire of resistance $x$ ohm is drawn out, so that its length is increased to twice its original length, and its new resistance becomes $20 \,\Omega$, then $x$ will be ........ $\Omega$
In the adjoining circuit, the $e.m.f.$ of the cell is $2\, volt$ and the internal resistance is negligible. The resistance of the voltmeter is $80 \,ohm$. The reading of the voltmeter will be ............. $volt$
In the circuit shown below (on the left) the resistance and the emf source are both variable. The graph of seven readings of the voltmeter and the ammeter ( $V$ and $I$, respectively) for different settings of resistance and the emf, taken at equal intervals of time $\Delta t$, are shown below (on the right) by the dots connected by the curve $E F G H$. Consider the internal resistance of the battery to be negligible and the voltmeter an ammeter to be ideal devices. (Take, $R_0 \equiv \frac{V_0}{I_0}$ ).
Then, the plot of the resistance as a function of time corresponding to the curve $E F G H$ is given by
A cell $E _{1}$ of $emf 6 V$ and internal resistance $2 \Omega$ is connected with another cell $E _{2}$ of $emf 4 V$ and internal resistance $8 \Omega$ (as shown in the figure). The potential difference across points $X$ and $Y$ is............ $V$
Figure shows three resistor configurations $\mathrm{R} 1, \mathrm{R} 2$ and $\mathrm{R} 3$ connected to $3 \mathrm{~V}$ battery. If the power dissipated by the configuration $\mathrm{R} 1, \mathrm{R} 2$ and $\mathrm{R} 3$ is $\mathrm{P} 1, \mathrm{P} 2$ and $\mathrm{P} 3$, respectively, then
Consider a metallic cube of edge length $L$. Its resistance, $R$, measured across its opposite faces is $R =\frac{ m _{ e } v }{ ne ^2 L ^2}$, where $n$ is the number density and $v$ is the drift speed of electrons in the cube, and $e$ and $m _{ e }$ are the charge and mass of an electron respectively. Assuming the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron to be $L$, the maximum resistance of the sample is closest to ............. $\,\Omega$ $\left(e=1.60 \times 10^{-19} \,C ; m _{ e }=9.11 \times 10^{-31} \,kg\right.$; Planck's constant, $h=6.63 \times 10^{-34} \,Js$ )
Two cells are connected between points $A$ and $B$ as shown. Cell $1$ has emf of $12\,V$ and internal resistance of $3\,\Omega$. Cell $2$ has emf of $6\,V$ and internal resistance of $6\,\Omega$. An external resistor $R$ of $4\,\Omega$ is connected across $A$ and $B$. The current flowing through $R$ will be $.............A$.
In an experiment to measure the internal resistance of a cell by potentiometer, it is found that the balance point is at a length of $2\,m$ when the cell is shunted by a $5\,\Omega $ resistance; and is at a length of $3\,m$ when the cell is shunted by a $10\,\Omega $ resistance. The internal resistance of the cell is, then ................ $\Omega $
