    In the circuit shown, $n$-identical resistors $R$ are connected in parallel $(n > 1)$ and the combination is connected in series to another resistor $R_0$. In the adjoining circuit $n$ resistors of resistance $R$ are all connected in series alongwith $R_0$. The batteries in both circuits are identical and net power dissipated in the $n$ resistors in both circuits is same. The ratio $R_0 / R$ is

    An insulating pipe of cross-section area $'A'$ contains an electrolyte which has two types of ions $\rightarrow$ their charges being $-e$ and $+2e$. $A$ potential difference applied between the ends of the pipe result in the drifting of the two types of ions, having drift speed $= v$ ($-ve$ ion) and $v/4$ ($+ve$ ion). Both ions have the same number per unit volume $= n$. The current flowing through the pipe is
