The figure shows three circuits $I, II$ and $III$ which are connected to a $3\,V$ battery. If the powers dissipated by the configurations $I, II$ and $III$ are $P_1 , P_2$ and $P_3$ respectively, then
A$P_1 > P_2 > P_3$
B$P_1 > P_3 > P_2$
C$P_2 > P_1 > P_3$
D$P_3 > P_2 > P_1$

C$P_2 > P_1 > P_3$
c From the given circuit, net resistances ${{\rm{R}}_I} = 1\,\Omega ,{{\rm{R}}_{{\rm{II}}}} = 1/2\,\Omega ,{{\rm{R}}_{{\rm{III}}}} = 3/2\,\Omega $
It is clear that $\mathrm{R}_{3}>\mathrm{R}_{1}>\mathrm{R}_{2}$
Hence, ${P_3} < {P_1} < {P_2}$
As Power $(P)$ $=\frac{\mathrm{V}^{2}}{\mathrm{R}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{P} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{R}}$

$50\,\Omega $ and $100\,\Omega $ resistors are connected in series. This connection is connected with a battery of $2.4\, volts$. When a voltmeter of $100\,\Omega $ resistance is connected across $100\,\Omega $ resistor, then the reading of the voltmeter will be ............. $V$
An electric kettle takes $4\, A$ current at $220\,V.$ How much time will it take to boil $1\,\, kg$ of water circuits are consequences of from temperature $20\,^o C\, ?$ The temperature of $(a)$ conservation of energy and electric charge boiling water is $100\,^o C.$ ............... $min$
The meter bridge shown is in balanced position with $\frac{\mathrm{P}}{\mathrm{Q}}=\frac{\mathrm{l}_{1}}{\mathrm{l}_{2}}$. If we now litterchange the positions of gavanometer and cell, will the bridge work? If yes, what will be balance condition?
In a meter bridge experiment resistances are connected as shown in the figure. Initially resistance $P\, = 4\,\Omega $ and the neutral point $N$ is at $60\,cm$ from $A$. Now an unknown resistance $R$ is connected in series to $P$ and the new position of the neutral point is at $80\,cm$ from $A$ . The value of unknown resistance $R$ is
Consider a thin square sheet of side $\mathrm{L}$ and thickness $\mathrm{t}$, made of a material of resistivity $\rho$. The resistance between two opposite faces, shown by the shaded areas in the figure is
