A wire of resistance $20 \Omega$ is divided into $10$ equal parts. A combination of two parts are connected in parallel and so on. Now resulting pairs of parallel combination are connected in series. The equivalent resistance of final combination is_______.0$\Omega$.
You are given a resistance wire of length $50\, cm$ and a battery of negligible resistance. In which of the following cases is largest amount of heat generated
The resistance of a wire of iron is $10\, ohms$ and temp. coefficient of resistivity is $5 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,^oC$. At $20\,^oC$ it carries $30$ milliamperes of current. Keeping constant potential difference between its ends, the temperature of the wire is raised to $120\,^oC$. The current in milliamperes that flows in the wire is
$100$ cells each of $e.m.f.$ $5\, V$ and internal resistance $1\, ohm$ are to be arranged so as to produce maximum current in a $25\, ohms$ resistance. Each row is to contain equal number of cells. The number of rows should be
A potentiometer is connected between $A$ and $B$ and the balance point is obtained at $203. 6\,cm$. When the end of the potentiometer connected to $B$ is shifted to $C$, then the balance point is obtained at $24.6\,cm$. If now the potentiometer be connected between $B$ and $C$, the balance point will be at ................. $cm$
In the meter bridge shown, the resistance $X$ has a negative temperature coefficient of resistance. Neglecting the variation in other resistors, when current is passed for some time, in the cirucit, balance point should shift towards.
The resistance of a wire is $20\, ohms$. It is so stretched that the length becomes three times, then the new resistance of the wire will be ............. $ohms$
