If three cells of 2 volt each are connected in series to make a battery, then the total potential difference between terminals of the battery will be 6V.
Given: p.d. = 2V, Charge moved = 1C
We know that
Work done = p.d × charge moved
= 2 × 1
Work done = 2 joules
Given: p.d = 6V, Charge moved = 1C
Work done = p.d × charge moved
= 6 × 1
Work done = 6 joule.

An electric iron is connected to the mains power supply of $220V$. When the electric iron is adjusted at ‘minimum heating’ it consumes a power of $360W$ but at ‘maximum heating’ it takes a power of $840W$. Calculate the current and resistance in each case.
With the help of a circuit diagram, obtain the relation for the equivalent resistance of two resistances connected in parallel. In the circuit diagram shown below, find:
A resistance of $40$ ohms and one of $60$ ohms are arranged in series across $220$ volt supply. Find the heat in joules produced by this combination of resistances in half a minute.
The electrical resistivities of five substances A, B, C, D and E are given below:
$\begin{matrix}\text{B}&110\times10^{-8}\Omega\text{ m}\\\text{C}&2.60\times10^{-8}\Omega\text{ m}\\\text{D}&10.0\times10^{-8}\Omega\text{ m}\\\text{E}&1.70\times10^{-8}\Omega\text{ m}\end{matrix}$
