Voltmeters $V_1$ and $V_2$ are connected in series across a $D.C.$ line. $V_1$ reads $80\, volts$ and has a per volt resistance of $200 \,\Omega$. $V_2$ has a total resistance of $32 \,kilo-ohms$. The line voltage is .............

(d) ${R_1} = 80 \times 200 = 16000\,\Omega = 16\,k\Omega $
Current flowing through ${V_1}$$=$ Current flowing through ${V_2}$ $=$ $\frac{{80}}{{16 \times {{10}^3}}} = 5 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,A$.
So, potential differences across ${V_2}$ is
${V_2} = 5 \times {10^{ - 3}} \times 32 \times {10^3} = 160\,{\rm{volt}}$
Hence, line voltage $V = {V_1} + {V_2} = 80 + 160 = 240\,V$.

An electrical bulb rated $220\,V , 100\,W$, is connected in series with another bulb rated $220\,V$, $60\,W$.If the voltage across combination is $220\,V$, the power consumed by the $100\,W$ bulb will be about $........... W$
A wire of resistance $12\,ohms$ per meter is bent to form a complete circle of radius $10\, cm.$ The resistance between its two diametrically opposite points, $A$ and $B$ as shown in the figure is
A $1\,m$ long wire is broken into two unequal parts $X$ and $Y$ The $X$ part of the wire is streched into another wire $W$. Length of $W$ is twice the length of $X$ and the resistance of $W$ is twice that of $Y$. Find the ratio of length of $X$ and $Y$.
