A
Equal amounts of thermal energy must be produced in the resistors
a $P = {i^2}R$ ($i$ and $R$ are same)
So $P$ will be same for given resistors.

A heater $A$ gives out $300\, W$ of heat when connected to a $200\, V$ $d.c.$ supply. Asecond heater $B$ gives out $600\, W$ when connected to a $200\,v$ $d.c$. supply. If a series combination of the two heaters is connected to a $200\, V$ $d.c$. supply the heat output will be ................. $W$
Resistance of one carbon filament and one tungsten lamp are measured individually when the lamp are lit and compared with their respective resistances when cold. Which one of the following statements will be true
Two resistors of $6\,\Omega $ and $9\,\Omega $ are connected in series to a $120\, volt$ source. The power consumed by the $6\,\Omega $ resistor is ........... $W$
A battery of $3.0\, V$ is connected to a resistor dissipating $0.5\, W$ of power. If the terminal voltage of the battery is $2.5\, V$ the power dissipated within the internal resistance is$.......W$
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 :
By using only two resistance coils-singly, in series, or in parallel one should be able to obtain resistances of $3$, $4$, $12$ and $16\, ohms$. The separate resistances of the coil are
