Wheatstone bridge principle is used to measure the specific resistance $\left(S_1\right)$ of given wire, having length $L$, radius $r$. If $X$ is the resistance of wire, then specific resistance is: $S_1=X\left(\frac{\pi r^2}{L}\right)$. If the length of the wire gets doubled then the value of specific resistance will be :
In a potentiometer experiment two cells of $e.m.f.$ $E_1$ and $E_2$ are used in series and in conjunction and the balancing length is found to be $58\, cm$ of the wire. If the polarity of $E_2$ is reversed, then the balancing length becomes $29\, cm$. The ratio $\frac{{{E_1}}}{{{E_2}}}$ of the $e.m.f.$ of the two cells is
There are a large number of cells available, each marked $(6 \,V , 0.5 \,\Omega)$ to be used to supply current to a device of resistance $0.75 \,\Omega$, requiring $24 \,A$ current. How should the cells be arranged, so that power is transmitted to the load using minimum number of cells?
A uniform wire of resistance $R$ is uniformly compressed along its length, until its radius becomes $n$ times the original radius. Now resistance of the wire becomes
The current $i_1$ and $i_2$ through the resistor $R_1 (= 10\,\Omega )$ and $R_2 (=30 \,\Omega )$ in the circuit diagram with $E_1 = 3\,V, E_2 = 3\,V$ and $E_3 = 2\,V$ are respectively:
Two identical cells each of emf $1.5\,V$ are connected in series across a $10\,\Omega$ resistance. An ideal voltmeter connected across $10\,\Omega$ resistance reads $1.5\,V$. The internal resistance of each cell is $......\Omega$.
