In the adjoining circuit, the galvanometer $G$ shows zero deflection. If the batteries $A$ and $B$ have negligible internal resistance, the value of the resistor $R$ will be .............. $\Omega$
In copper wire each atom releases one free electron. If diameter is $1\, mm$ and current is $1.1\,A$ find drift velocity. ($\rho = 9 \times 10^{+3}\, kg/m^3$ $M = 63\, gm/mole$)
A galvanometer of resistance, $G,$ is connected in a circuit. Now a resistance $R$ is connected in series of galvanometer. To keep the main current in the circuit unchanged, the resistance to be put in parallel with the series combination of $G$ and $R$ is
Resistance are connected in a meter bridge circuit as shown in the figure. The balancing length $l_{1}$ is $40\,cm$. Now an unknown resistance $x$ is connected in series with $P$ and new balancing length is found to be $80\,cm$ measured from the same end. Then the value of $x$ will be $.......\Omega$
The electric current through a wire varies with time as $I=I_0+\beta t$. where $I_0=20 \mathrm{~A}$ and $\beta=3 \mathrm{~A} / \mathrm{s}$. The amount of electric charge crossed through a section of the wire in $20 \mathrm{~s}$ is :
Two batteries $A$ and $B$ each of $e.m.f.$ $2\, V$ are connected in series to an external resistance $R = 1 \,ohm$. If the internal resistance of battery $A$ is $1.9\, ohms$ and that of $B$ is $0.9\, ohm$, what is the potential difference between the terminals of battery $A$ ............. $V$
