For comparing the $e.m.f.$'s of two cells with a potentiometer, a standard cell is used to develop a potential gradient along the wires. Which of the following possibilities would make the experiment unsuccessful
AThe $e.m.f.$ of the standard cell is larger than the $E$ $e.m.f.$'s of the two cells
B
The diameter of the wires is the same and uniform throughout
C
The number of wires is ten
DThe $e.m.f.$ of the standard cell is smaller than the $e.m.f.$'s of the two cells

The circuit shown in the figure consists of a battery of $emf$ $\varepsilon = 10 \,V$ ; a capacitor of capacitance $C = 1.0$ $ \mu F$ and three resistor of values $R_1 = 2$ $\Omega$ , $R_2 = 2$ $\Omega$ and $R_3 = 1$ $\Omega$ . Initially the capacitor is completely uncharged and the switch $S$ is open. The switch $S$ is closed at $t = 0.$
A piece of wire is cut into four equal parts and the pieces are bundled together side by side to form a thicker wire. Compared with that of the original wire, the resistance of the bundle is ..........
Four resistances $40 \ \Omega, 60\ \Omega, 90\ \Omega$ and $110\ \Omega$ make the arms of a quadrilateral $A,B,C,D$. Across $AC$ is a battery of emf $40\, V$ and internal resistance negligible. The potential difference across $BD$ is $V$ is......
A wire is broken in four equal parts. A packet is formed by keeping the four wires together. The resistance of the packet in comparison to the resistance of the wire will be
Two solid conductors are made up of same material, have same length and same resistance. One of them has a circular cross section of area $A_{1}$ and the other one has a square cross section of area $A_{2}$. The ratio $\frac{A _{1}}{A _{2}}$ is
