An electric fan and a heater are marked as $100\, watt$, $220\, volt$ and $1000\, watt$, $220\, volt$ respectively. The resistance of the heater is
A
Zero
B
Greater than that of the fan
C
Less than that of the fan
D
Equal to that of the fan

C
Less than that of the fan
c For constant voltage, we know that $P \propto \frac{1}{R}$
So higher the power, lower will be the resistance.

The figure shows a circuit diagram of a ‘Wheatstone Bridge’ to measure the resistance $G$ of the galvanometer. The relation $\frac{P}{Q} = \frac{R}{G}$ will be satisfied only when
A cell, shunted by a $8 \; \Omega$ resistance, is balanced across a potentiometer wire of length $3 \; m$. The balancing length is $2 \; m$ when the cell is shunted by $4 \; \Omega$ resistance. The value of internal resistance of the cell will be $\dots \; \Omega .$
The resistance of a rectangular block of copper of dimensions $2 \,mm \times 2 \,mm \times 5 \,m$ between two square faces is $0.02 \,\Omega$. What is the resistivity of copper?
The drift velocity of free electrons in a conductor is ‘$v$’ when a current ‘$i$’ is flowing in it. If both the radius and current are doubled, then drift velocity will be
