The resistance in the two arms of a meter bridge are $5\,\Omega $ and $R\,\Omega $, respectively. When the resistance $R$ is shunted with an equal resistance, the new balance point is at $1.6\, l_1$. The resistance $‘R’$ is ................. $\Omega$
The resistance of a heater coil is $110\, ohm$. A resistance $R$ is connected in parallel with it and the combination is joined in series with a resistance of $11\, ohm$ to a $220\, volt$ main line. The heater operates with a power of $110\, watt$. The value of $R$ in $ohm$ is
A cylindrical wire of radius $0.5 \,mm$ and conductivity $5 \times 10^{7}\, S / m$ is subjected to an electric field of $10 \,mV / m .$ The expected value of current in the wire will be $x ^{3} \,\pi mA$. The value of $x$ is ......
$10$ resistors each of resistance $10\,\Omega$ can be connected in such as to get maximum and minimum equivalent resistance. The ratio of maximum and minimum equivalent resistance will be $..........$.
In a Wheatstone bridge (see figure) Resistance $P$ and $Q$ are approximately equal. When $R = 400\,\Omega ,$ the bridge is balanced. On interchanging $P$ and $Q,$ the value of $R,$ for balance is $405\,\Omega .$ The value of $X$ is close to ................. $ohm$
If resistance of the filament increases with temperature, what will be power dissipated in a $220\, V- 100\, W$ lamp when connected to $110\, V$ power supply
The resistance of a wire is $R$. It is bent at the middle by $180^{\circ}$ and both the ends are twisted together to make a shorter wire. The resistance of the new wire is
