C${n^2}$
c ${R_{\max }} = nR$ and ${R_{\min }} = R/n$ $ \Rightarrow $ $\frac{{{R_{\max }}}}{{{R_{\min }}}} = {n^2}$

The circuit below is used to heat water kept in a bucket. Assuming heat loss only by Newton's law of cooling, the variation in the temperature of the water in the bucket as a function of time is depicted by
In the given circuit ' $a$ ' is an arbitrary constant. The value of $m$ for which the equivalent circuit resistance is minimum, will be $\sqrt{\frac{ x }{2}}$. The value of $x$ is ...........
A circuit containing five resistors is connected to a battery with a $12 \,V$ emf as shown in figure. The potential difference across $4 \,\Omega$ resistor is ........... $V$
In the adjoining circuit, the battery ${E_1}$ has an $e.m.f.$ of $12\,volt$ and zero internal resistance while the battery $E$ has an $e.m.f.$ of $2\,volt$. If the galvanometer $G$ reads zero, then the value of the resistance $X$ in $ohm$ is
$3$ identical bulbs are connected in series and these together dissipate a power $P$. If now the bulbs are connected in parallel, then the power dissipated will be
