D$P > R > Q > S$

Power consumed in each case is
$( Q )$ $P=\frac{V^2}{R / 3}=\frac{3 V^2}{R}$
$( P )$ $P=\frac{V^2}{3 R}$
$( R )$ $P=\frac{V^2}{R}$
$( S )$ $P=\frac{(2 V)^2}{R}=\frac{4 V^2}{R}$
So, order of increasing power consumption is $P > R > Q > S$.

For driving a current of $2\, A$ for $6$ minutes in a circuit, $1000\, J$ of work is to be done. The $e.m.f.$ of the source in the circuit is ................ $V$
A uniform wire of resistance $20\,ohm$ having resistance $1\Omega /m$ is bent in the adjoining form of a circle as shown in the figure. If the equivalent resistance between $M$ and $N$ is $1.8 \,\Omega $, then the length of the shorter section is ................ $m$
By a cell a current of $0.9\, A$ flows through $2\, ohm$ resistor and $0.3\,A$ through $7\, ohm$ resistor. The internal resistance of the cell is ............ $\Omega$
A battery of $e.m.f.$ $3\, volt$ and internal resistance $1.0\, ohm$ is connected in series with copper voltameter. The current flowing in the circuit is $1.5\, amperes$. The resistance of voltameter will be ........... $ohm$
A meta sample carrying a current along $x-$ axis with density $J$ is subjected to a magnetic field $B$ (along $z-$ axis). The electric field $E$ developed along $y-$ axis is directly proportional to $J$ as well as $B$. The constant of proportionality has $SI\ unit$
When two identical batteries of internal resistance $1 \Omega$ each are connected in series across a resistor $\mathrm{R}$, the rate of heat produced in $R$ is $J_1$. When the same batteries are connected in parallel across $R$, the rate is $\mathrm{J}_2$. If $\mathrm{J}_1=2.25 \mathrm{~J}_2$ then the value of $\mathrm{R}$ in $\Omega$ is
In the circuit shown in figure, the current drawn from the battery is $4\,A$. If $10 \,\Omega$ resistor is replaced by $20\,\Omega$ resistor, then current drawn from the circuit will be .............. $A$
