If $n, e, \tau$ and $m$ are representing electron density, charge, relaxation time and mass of an electron respectively, then the resistance of a wire of length / and cross-sectional area $A$ is given by
The current through a wire depends on time as $i = (2+3t)\, mA$. The charge crossing through a section of the wire in $1\, min$ is .............. $\mathrm{C}$
The figure shows a tetrahedron, each side of which has a resistance $r$ If a battery is connected between any two points of the tetrahedron, then identify the correct statement $(s)$.
In an experiment, the resistance of a material is plotted as a function of temperature (in some range). As shown in the figure, it is a straight line. One may conclude that:
A potentiometer is used for the comparison of $e.m.f.$ of two cells ${E_1}$ and ${E_2}$. For cell ${E_1}$ the no deflection point is obtained at $20\,cm$ and for ${E_2}$ the no deflection point is obtained at $30\,cm$. The ratio of their $e.m.f.$'s will be
