b (b) Emf $E = 5\,V$ , Internal resistance $r = \frac{5}{{10}} = 0.5\,\Omega $
Current through the resistance $i = \frac{5}{{(2 + 0.5)}} = 2\,A$

An electric iron draws $5\, amp$, a $TV$ set draws $3\, amp$ and refrigerator draws $2\, amp$ from a $220\, volt$ main line. The three appliances are connected in parallel. If all the three are operating at the same time, the fuse used may be of ............. $amp$
In an experiment to find $emf$ of a cell using potentiometer, the length of null point for a cell of emf $1.5\,V$ is found to be $60\,cm$. If this cell is replaced by another cell of $emf\; E$. the length-of null point increases by $40\,cm$. The value of $E$ is $\frac{x}{10} V$. The value of $x$ is $............$
The resistance of platinum wire at $0^{\circ}\,C$ is $2\,\Omega$ and $6.8\,\Omega$ at $80^{\circ} \,C$. The temperature coefficient of resistance of the wire is :
A potential divider is used to give outputs of $4\, V$ and $8\, V$ from a $12\, V$ source. Which combination of resistances, $(R_1, R_2, R_3)$ gives the correct voltages ? $R_1 : R_2 : R_3$
