C$30$
c (c) Suppose resistance $R$ is corrected in series with bulb. Current through the bulb $i = \frac{{90}}{{30}} = 3\,A$
Hence for resistance $V = i\,R$$ \Rightarrow $ $90 = 3 \times R \Rightarrow R = 30\,\Omega $

The resistivity of iron is$1 \times {10^{ - 7}}\,ohm - m$. The resistance of a iron wire of particular length and thickness is $1\, ohm$. If the length and the diameter of wire both are doubled, then the resistivity in $ohm - m$ will be
In the given potentiometer circuit length of the wire $AB$ is $3\,m$ and resistance is $R = 4.5 \,\Omega.$ The length $AC$ for no deflection in galvanometer is ................ $\mathrm{m}$
In a potentiometer experiment two cells of $e.m.f.$ $E_1$ and $E_2$ are used in series and in conjunction and the balancing length is found to be $58\, cm$ of the wire. If the polarity of $E_2$ is reversed, then the balancing length becomes $29\, cm$. The ratio $\frac{{{E_1}}}{{{E_2}}}$ of the $e.m.f.$ of the two cells is
