Question
I-V graph at two different temperatures $T _1$ and $T _2$ for a metallic wire. Which temperature is greater and why? 
✓
Answer
Slope of graph at the temperature $T_2$ is less. Hence resistance will be more at this temperature. With increase in temperature, resistance also increases. Hence, $T_2$ is greater.

Figure shows two identical capacitors, $C_1$ and $C_2$, each of 1 μF capacitance connected to a battery of 6 V. Initially switch 'S' is closed. After sometime 'S' is left open and dielectric slabs of dielectric constant K = 3 are inserted to fill completely the space between the plates of the two capacitors. How will the (i) charge and (ii) potential difference between the plates of the capacitors be affected after the slabs are inserted?
