Voltmeters $V_1$ and $V_2$ are connected in series across a $D.C.$ line. $V_1$ reads $80\, volts$ and has a per volt resistance of $200 \,\Omega$. $V_2$ has a total resistance of $32 \,kilo-ohms$. The line voltage is .............
A current of $2\,A$ flows through a $2\,\Omega$ resistor when connected across a battery. The same battery supplies a current of $0.5\,\, A$ when connected across a $9 \,\,\Omega$ resistor. The internal resistance of the battery is
In the circuit shown, a four wire potentiometer is made of a $400\, cm$ long wire, which extends between $A$ and $B$. The resistance per unit length of the potentiometer wire is $r = 0.01\, \Omega /cm$. If an ideal voltmeter is connected as shown with jockey $J$ at $50\, cm$ from end $A$, the expected reading of the voltmeter will be: ............... $V$
Two wires of the same material and equal length are joined in parallel combination. If one of them has half the thickness of the other and the thinner wire has a resistance of $8\, ohms$, the resistance of the combination is equal to
A $5\ V$ battery with internal resistance $2\,\Omega$ and a $2\,V$ battery with internal resistance ln are connected to a $10\,\Omega$ resistor as shown in the figure.
