Model a torch battery of length $l$ to be made up of a thin cylindrical bar of radius $'a'$ and a concentric thin cylindrical shell of radius ' $b$ ' fille in between with an electrolyte of resistivity $\rho$ (see figure). If the battery is connected to a resistance of value $R ,$ the maximum Joule heating in $R$ will take place for

Maximum power in external resistance is generated when it is equal to internal resistance of battery.
$P_{R}$ is max. when $r=R$
$\int dr =\int_{2}^{b} \frac{\rho dr }{2 \pi r l} \Rightarrow r =\frac{\rho}{2 \pi l} l n \frac{ b }{ a }$

Two resistors are connected $(a)$ in series $(b)$ in parallel. The equivalent resistance in the two cases are $9$ $ohm$ and $2$ $ohm$ respectively. Then the resistances of the component resistors are
The resistance of hot tungsten filament is about $10$ times the cold resistance. What will be the resistance of $100\, W$ and $200\, V$ lamp when not in use ............. $\Omega $
A battery of internal resistance $4$ $\Omega$ is connected to the network of resistances as shown. In order to give the maximum power to the network, the value of $R$ (in $\Omega $) should be
