(d) Slope of $V-i$ curve $ = R\,\left( { = \frac{{\rho l}}{A}} \right)$. But in given curve axis of $i$ and $V$ are interchanged. So slope of given curve $ = \frac{1}{R}\left( { = \frac{A}{{\rho l}}} \right)$ i.e. with the increase in length of the wire. Slope of the curve will decrease.

Two wires of the same dimensions but resistivities ${\rho _1}$ and ${\rho _2}$ are connected in series. The equivalent resistivity of the combination is
In a meter bridge, the null point is found at a distance of $25\, cm$ from $A$ . If now a resistance of $10\,\Omega $ is connected in parallel with $S$, the null point occurs at mid point of $AB$. The value of $R$ is .............. $\Omega$
As shown in the figure, a potentiometer wire of resistance $20\,\Omega$ and length $300\,cm$ is connected with resistance box (R.B.) and a standard cell of emf $4\,V$. For a resistance ' $R$ ' of resistance box introduced into the circuit, the null point for a cell of $20\,mV$ is found to be $60\,cm$. The value of ' $R$ ' is $.....\Omega$
A meter bridge set up as shown to determine end correction at $A$ and $B$. When a resistance of $15\ \Omega$ is used in left gap and of $20\ \Omega$ in right gap, then null point comes at a distance $42\ cm$ from $A$. When these resistances are interchanged null point comes at a distance $57\ cm$ from $A$. Values of end corrections are
Resistances are arranged in a cyclic order to form a balanced wheatstone bridge as shown in figure. Ratio of power consumed in the branches $P + Q$ and $R + S$ is
An electric kettle has two coils. When one of these is switched on, the water in the kettle boils in $6\,\min$ . When the other coil is switched on, the water boils in $3\,\min$. If the two coils are connected in series, the time taken to boil the water in the kettle is ............. $min$
