An unknown resistance $R_1$ is connected in series with a resistance of $10 \,\Omega$. This combinations is connected to one gap of a meter bridge while a resistance $R_2$ is connected in the other gap. The balance point is at $50\, cm$. Now, when the $10 \,\Omega$ resistance is removed the balance point shifts to $40\, cm$. The value of $R_1$ is (in $ohm$)
Four wires $AB,\,\,BC,\,\,CD,\,\,DA$ of resistance $4\, \Omega$ each and a fifth wire $BD$ of resistance $8\, \Omega$ are joined to form a rectangle $ABCD$ of which $BD$ is a diagonal. The effective resistance between the points $A$ and $B$ is
A $220\, volt$ and $800\, watt$ electric kettle and three $220\, volt$ and $100\, watt$ bulbs are connected in parallel. On connecting this combination with $220\, volt$ electric supply, the total current will be ................ $ampere$
The current density in a cylindrical wire of radius $4 \; mm$ is $4 \times 10^{6} \; Am ^{-2}$. The current through the outer portion of the wire between radial distance $\frac{R}{2}$ and $R$ is $\dots \; \pi A .$
The four arms of a Wheatstone bridge have resistances as shown in the figure. A galvanometer of $15\, \Omega$ resistance is connected across $BD$. Calculate the current through the galvanometer when a potential difference of $10\, V$ is maintained across $AC.$
The figure shows a network of resistors and $a$ battery. If $1\,A$ current flowsthrough the branch $CF$, then answer the following questions The $\mathrm{emf}$ $E$ of the battery is If a zero resistance wire is connected in parallel to branch $CF$ ............... $V$
What amount of heat will be generated in a coil of resistance $R$ due to a charge $q$ passing through it if the current in the coil decreases to zero uniformly during a time interval $\Delta t$
