Three resistances $P, Q, R$ each of $2 \,\,\Omega$ and an unknown resistance $S$ form the four arms of a Wheatstone bridge circuit. When a resistance of $6 \,\,\Omega$ is connected in parallel to $S$ the bridge gets balanced. What is the value of $S\,?$ ............... $\Omega$
Following figure shows four situations in which positive and negative charges moves horizontally through a region and gives the rate at which each charge moves. Rank the situations according to the effective current through the region greatest first
Four lamps are connected in the way shown in the figure. When switch $S_2$ is open and switch $S_1$ is on position $-2$ , lamp $-b$ is the brightest, and lamp $-c$ and lamp $-d$ are the dimmest and are of the same brightness. Now $S_2$ is closed and $S_1$ is on position $-1$ , the sequence in brightness of the lamps is (with the first in the sequence being the brightest)
Water of volume $2\, litre$ in a container is heated with a coil of $1\, kW$ at $27 \,^oC$. The lid of the container is open and energy dissipates at rate of $160\, J/s$. In how much time temperature will rise from $27\,^oC$ to $77\,^oC$ $[$ Given specific heat of water is $4.2\, kJ/kg$ $]$
An electric toaster has resistance of $60\ \Omega$ at room temperature $\left(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)$. The toaster is connected to a $220 \mathrm{~V}$ supply. If the current flowing through it reaches $2.75 \mathrm{~A}$, the temperature attained by toaster is around : (if $\alpha=2 \times 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ )
Two cells of same emf but different internal resistances $I_{1}$ and $I_{2}$ are connected in series with a resistance $R$. The value of resistance $R$, for which the potential difference across second cell is zero, is
