Two solid conductors are made up of same material, have same length and same resistance. One of them has a circular cross section of area $A_{1}$ and the other one has a square cross section of area $A_{2}$. The ratio $\frac{A _{1}}{A _{2}}$ 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 heating coil is labelled $100\, W$, $220\, V$. The coil is cut in half and the two pieces are joined in parallel to the same source. The energy now liberated per second is .............. $J$
The resistance of an electrical toaster has a temperature dependence given by $R\left( T \right) = {R_0}\left[ {1 + \alpha \left( {T - {T_0}} \right)} \right]$ in its range of operation. At ${T_0} = 300\,K,R = 100\,\Omega $ and at $T = 500\,K,\,R = 120\,\Omega $. The toaster is connected to a voltage source at $200\, V$ and its temperature is raised at a constant rate from $300$ to $500\, K$ in $30\, s$. The total work done in raising the temperature is
