A$\frac{{14}}{3}\,\,\Omega $
a (a) The given circuit is a balanced Wheatstone bridge, hence it can be redrawn as follows
$ \Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,{R_{eq}} = \frac{{7 \times 14}}{{(7 + 14)}} = \frac{{14}}{3}\Omega $.

A steel wire has a resistance twice that of an aluminium wire. Both of them are connected with a constant voltage supply. More heat will be dissipated in
A steady current $I$ flows through a wire of radius $r$, length $L$ and resistivity $\rho$. The current produces heat in the wire. The rate of heat loss in a wire is proportional to its surface area. The steady temperature of the wire is independent of
Resistance of rod is calculated by measuring its length with help of meter scale of least count $1\ mm$ . Its radius is measured with help of screw gauge having $50$ division on circular scale and pitch is of $1\ mm$ . Resistivity of material is exact. Length of the wire is found to be $20\ cm$ and diameter of wire is $4\ mm$ . Find the percentage error in calculation of resistance ............... $\%$
An electron (charge $= 1.6 × 10^{-19}$ coulomb) is moving in a circle of radius $5.1 × 10^{-11}\,m$ at a frequency of $6.8 × 10^{15} $ revolutions/sec. The equivalent current is approximately
Two wires of equal diameters, of resistivities ${\rho _1}$ and ${\rho _2}$ and lengths $l_1$ and $l_2$, respectively, are joined in series. The equivalent resistivity of the combination is
The $H$ amount of thermal energy is developed by a resistor in $10\,s$ when a current of $4\,A$ is passed through it. If the current is increased to $16\,A$, the thermal energy developed by the resistor in $10\,s$ will be $........\,H$
