b (b) Let the $e.m.f.$ of cell be $E$ and internal resistance be $r$.
Then $0.5 = \frac{E}{{(r + 2)}}$ and $0.25 = \frac{E}{{(r + 5)}}$

A current of $5\; {A}$ is passing through a non-linear magnesium wire of cross-section $0.04\; {m}^{2}$. At every point the direction of current density is at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the unit vector of area of cross-section. The magnitude of electric field at every point of the conductor is ....${V} / {m}$ (Resistivity of magnesium is $\rho=44 \times 10^{-8}\, \Omega m$)
$A$ brass disc and a carbon disc of same radius are assembled alternatively to make a cylindrical conductor. The resistance of the cylinder is independent of the temperature. The ratio of thickness of the brass disc to that of the carbon disc is [$\alpha$ is temperature coefficient of resistance and Neglect linear expansion ]
