In copper wire each atom releases one free electron. If diameter is $1\, mm$ and current is $1.1\,A$ find drift velocity. ($\rho = 9 \times 10^{+3}\, kg/m^3$ $M = 63\, gm/mole$)
The $e.m.f.$ of a standard cell balances across $150\, cm$ length of a wire of potentiometer. When a resistance of $2\,\Omega $ is connected as a shunt with the cell, the balance point is obtained at $100\,cm$. The internal resistance of the cell is .............. $\Omega $
Two resistors having equal resistances are joined in series and a current is passed through the combination. Neglect any variation in resistance as the temperature changes. In a given time interval
In the circuit shown the cells are ideal and of equal emfs, the capacitance of the capacitor is $C$ and the resistance of the resistor is $R. X$ is first joined to $Y$ and then to $Z$. After a long time, the total heat produced in the resistor will be
A rise of temperature of $4\,^oC$ is observed in a conductor by passing a current. If the current is tripled, the rise temperature will be .............. $^oC$
In the box shown current $i$ enters at $H$ and leaves at $C$. If $i_{AB} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{6}$ , $i_{DC} = \frac{{\text{2i}}}{3}$ ,$i_{HA} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{2} , i_{GF} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{6} , i_{HE} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{6}$ , choose the branch in which current is zero
Four resistances $10$ $\Omega$, $5$ $\Omega$, $7$ $\Omega$ and $3$ $\Omega$ are connected so that they form the sides of a rectangle $AB$, $BC$, $CD$ and $DA$ respectively. Another resistance of $10$ $\Omega$ is connected across the diagonal $AC$. The equivalent resistance between $A$ and $B $ is .............. $\Omega$
Two resistances ${R_1}$ and ${R_2}$ when connected in series and parallel with $120\, V$ line, power consumed will be $25\, W$ and $100\, W$ respectively. Then the ratio of power consumed by ${R_1}$ to that consumed by ${R_2}$ will be
