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

Figure:

  • A$P1 > P2 > P3$
  • B$P1 > P3 > P2$
  • C$P2 > P1 > P3$
  • D$P3 > P2 > P1$

    A potentiometer circuit shown in the figure is set up to measure $e.m.f.$ of a cell $E$. As the point $P$ moves from $X$ to $Y$ the galvanometer $G$ shows deflection always in one direction, but the deflection decreases continuously until $Y$ is reached. In order to obtain balance point between $X$ and $Y$ it is necessary to
