A
In series fine wire liberates more energy while in parallel thick wire will liberate more energy
a (a) In series, is same), i.e. in series Fine wire (high $R$) liberates more energy.
In parallel, $P \propto \frac{1}{R}(V$is same) i.e. thick wire (less $R$) liberates more energy.

As shown in the figure, a network of resistors is connected to a battery of $2\,V$ with an internal resistance of $3\,\Omega$. The currents through the resistors $R_4$ and $R_5$ are $I_4$ and $I_5$ respectively. The values of $I_4$ and $I_5$ are :
A cell, shunted by a $8 \; \Omega$ resistance, is balanced across a potentiometer wire of length $3 \; m$. The balancing length is $2 \; m$ when the cell is shunted by $4 \; \Omega$ resistance. The value of internal resistance of the cell will be $\dots \; \Omega .$
In the given figure, the charge stored in $6 \ \mu \mathrm{F}$ capacitor, when points $A$ and $B$ are joined by a connecting wire is___________ $\mu \mathrm{C}$.
What is the number density of donor atoms which must be added to a pure germanium semiconductor to make $n-$ type semiconductor of conductivity $6.4\ {\Omega ^{ - 1}}\,c{m^{ - 1}}$? The mobility of electr ons in $n-$ type germanium is $4 \times {10^3}\ cm^2\ V^{-1}\ s^{-1}$. Neglect the contribution of holes to conductivity
In the circuit shown in figure, the $5\,\Omega $ resistance develops $20.00\,cal/s$ due to the current flowing through it. The heat developed in $2\,\Omega $ resistance (in $cal/s$ ) is
The figure shows a tetrahedron, each side of which has a resistance $r$ If a battery is connected between any two points of the tetrahedron, then identify the correct statement $(s)$.
$E$ denotes electric field in a uniform conductor, $I$ corresponding current through it, ${v_d}$ drift velocity of electrons and $P$ denotes thermal power produced in the conductor, then which of the following graph is incorrect
