(b) Because as temperature increases, the resistivity increases and hence the relaxation time decreases for conductors $\left( {\tau \propto \frac{1}{\rho }} \right).$

In the figure the potentiometer wire of length $l =100\, cm$ and resistance $9\Omega$ is joined to a cell of emf $E_1 = 10V$ and internal resistance $r_1 = 1\Omega $. Another cell of emf $E_2 = 5\, V$ and internal resistance $r_2 = 2 \Omega $ is connected as shown. The galvanometer $G$ will show no deflection when the length $AC$ is ............... $cm$
Two cells of $emfs$ $E_1$ and $E_2$ and internal resistances $r_1$ and $r_2$ are connected in parallel. The $emf$ and internal resistance of the equivalent source is
Eight copper wire of length $l$ and diameter $d$ are joined in parallel to form a single composite conductor of resistance $R$. If a single copper wire of length $2\,l$ have the same resistance $(R)$ then its diameter will be $.....d$.
Two batteries with e.m.f $12\ V$ and $13\ V$ are connected in parallel across a load resistor of $10\,\Omega$ . The internal resistances of the two batteries are $1\,\Omega$ and $2\,\Omega$ respectively. The voltage across the load lies between
The drift velocity of free electrons in a conductor is ‘$v$’ when a current ‘$i$’ is flowing in it. If both the radius and current are doubled, then drift velocity will be
An ammeter $A$ of finite resistance, and a resistor $R$ are joined in series to an ideal cell $C$. $A$ potentiometer $P$ is joined in parallel to $R$. The ammeter reading is $I_0$ and the potentiometer reading is $V_0$. $P$ is now replaced by a voltmeter of finite resistance. The ammeter reading now is $I$ and the voltmeter reading is $V$.
A $5\ V$ battery with internal resistance $2\,\Omega$ and a $2\,V$ battery with internal resistance ln are connected to a $10\,\Omega$ resistor as shown in the figure.
The electromotive force of a primary cell is $2\, volts$. When it is short-circuited it gives a current of $4$ amperes. Its internal resistance in $ohms$ is
A wire of length $100\, cm$ is connected to a cell of $emf$ $2\, V$ and negligible internal resistance. The resistance of the wire is $3\, \,\Omega$. The additional resistance required to produce a potential drop of $1$ milli volt per cm is ............... $\Omega $
