If $X, Y$ and $Z$ in figure are identical lamps, which of the following changes to the brightnesses of the lamps occur when switch $S$ is closed?
A$X$ stays the same, $Y$ decreases
B$X$ increases, $Y$ decreases
C$X$ increases, $Y$ stays the same
D$X$ decreases, $Y$ increases

B$X$ increases, $Y$ decreases
b Resistance of circuit decreases that increases current through $x$. So its brightness increases. Volttage across $Y$ decreases so it brightness will decreases.

A potentiometer wire has length $10\, m$ and resistance $20\,\Omega $. A $2. 5\, V$ battery of negligible internal resistance is connected across the wire with an $80\,\Omega $ series resistance. The potential gradient on the wire will be
There are three resistance coils of equal resistance. The maximum number of resistances you can obtain by connecting them in any manner you choose, being free to use any number of the coils in any way is
A generator has armature resistance of $0 .1\,\Omega $ and develops an induced emf of $120 \,V$ when driven at its rated speed. Its terminal voltage when a current of $50\,A$ is being drawn is ................. $V$
A $10\,V$ battery with internal resistance $1\,\Omega $ and a $15\,V$ battery with internal resistance $0.6\,\Omega $ are connected in parallel to a voltmeter (see figure). The reading in the voltmeter will be close to ................ $V$
The internal resistance of a primary cell is $4\, ohm$. It generates a current of $0.2\, amp$ in an external resistance of $21\, ohm$. The rate at which chemical energy is consumed in providing the current is .............. $J/s$
Thirteen resistances each of resistance $R\, ohm$ are connected in the circuit as shown in the figure below. The effective resistance between $A$ and $B$ is
