Given below are two statements:

Statement $I$ : A uniform wire of resistance $80\,\Omega$ is cut into four equal parts. These parts are now connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance of the combination will be $5\,\Omega$.

Statement $II :$ Two resistance $2\,R$ and $3\,R$ are connected in parallel in a electric circuit. The value of thermal energy developed in $3\,R$ and $2\,R$ will be in the ratio $3:2.$

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below

  • ABoth statement $I$ and statement $II$ are correct
  • BBoth statement $I$ and statement $II$ are incorrect
  • CStatement $I$ is correct but statement $II$ is incorrect.
  • DStatement $I$ is incorrect but statement $II$ is correct.
