A cylindrical wire of radius $0.5 \,mm$ and conductivity $5 \times 10^{7}\, S / m$ is subjected to an electric field of $10 \,mV / m .$ The expected value of current in the wire will be $x ^{3} \,\pi mA$. The value of $x$ is ......
Consider the circuits shown in the figure. Both the circuits are taking same current from battery but current through $R$ in the second circuit is $\frac{1}{{10}}$$^{th}$ of current through $R$ in the first circuit. If $R$ is $11$ $\Omega$, the value of $ R_1$ ................ $\Omega$
A wire of resistance $R$ is bent to form a square $ABCD$ as shown in the figure. The effective resistance between $E$ and $C$ is ( $E$ is mid-point of arm $CD$ )
Two resistors of resistance, $100\,\Omega$ and $200\,\Omega$ are connected in parallel in an electrical circuit. The ratio of the thermal energy developed in $100\,\Omega$ to that in $200\,\Omega$ in a given time is:
A uniform metallic wire carries a current $2\,A$. when $3.4\,V$ battery is connected across it. The mass of uniform metallic wire is $8.92 \times 10^{-3} \,kg$. density is $8.92 \times 10^3\,kg / m ^3$ and resistivity is $1.7 \times 10^{-8} \Omega- m$. The length of wire is $l=............\,m$
Three unequal resistors in parallel are equivalent to a resistance $1\, ohm$. If two of them are in the ratio $1 : 2$ and if no resistance value is fractional, the largest of the three resistances in $ohms$ is
This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2.$ Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement $1 :$ The possibility of an electric bulb fusing is higher at the time of switching $ON.$
Statement $2:$ Resistance of an electric bulb when it is not lit up is much smaller than when it is lit up.
