C$44$
c As volume is constant,
So resistance $\propto$ (length $)^2$
$\Rightarrow \% \text { change in resistance }=20+20+\frac{400}{100}=44 \%$

Three resistances of one ohm each are connected in parallel. Such connection is again connected with $\frac{2}{3}\,\Omega $ resistor in series. The resultant resistance will be ........... $\Omega$
Two conductors are made of the same material and have the same length. Conductor $A$ is a solid wire of diameter $1.0\, mm$. Conductor $B$ is a hollow tube of outside diameter $2.0\, mm$ and inside diameter $1.0\, mm$. The resistance ratio $R_A/R_B$ will be
A new flashlight cell of $e.m.f.$ $1.5\, volts$ gives a current of $15\, amps$, when connected directly to an ammeter of resistance $0.04\,\Omega $. The internal resistance of cell is ........... $\Omega$
Under what condition current passing through the resistance $R$ can be increased by short circuiting the battery of emf $E_2$. The internal resistances of the two batteries are $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively.
Figure shows a cross-section of a large-section of an infinite metal sheet carrying an electric current along its surface. The current per unit length is $J$ . A current carrying square loop is placed nearby the metal sheet such that the plane of square is perpendicular to the plane of sheet then
A $6\,\,V$ battery is connected to the terminals of a $3\, m$ long uniform wire having resistance $100\,\Omega $. The difference in potential between two points on the wire separated by a distance of $50\, cm$ will be ............. $V$
