A$12.22$
a (a) Power consumed by heater is $110\, W$ so by using $P = \frac{{{V^2}}}{R}$
$110 = \frac{{{V^2}}}{{110}}\,\, \Rightarrow \,V = 110\,V.$ Also from figure ${i_1} = \frac{{110}}{{110}} = 1\,A$ and $i = \frac{{110}}{{11}} = 10\,A.$ So ${i_2} = 10 - 1 = 9\,A$
Applying Ohms law for resistance $R$, $V = iR$
$ \Rightarrow \,\,110 = 9 \times R$ $ \Rightarrow $ $R = 12.22\,\Omega $

A potential $V_0$ is applied across a uniform wire of resistance $R$. The power dissipation is $P_1$. The wire is then cut into two equal halves and a potential of $V _0$ is applied across the length of each half. The total power dissipation across two wires is $P_2$. The ratio $P_2: P_1$ is $\sqrt{x}: 1$. The value of $x$ is $.............$.
Figure $(i)$ below shows a Wheatstone's bridge in which $P, Q, R$ and $S$ are fixed resistances, $G$ is a galvanometer and $B$ is a battery. For this particular case, the galvanometer shows zero deflection. Now, only the positions of $B$ and $G$ are interchanged, as shown in figure $(ii)$. The new deflection of the galvanometer
The heating coils rating at $220\, volt$ and producing $50\, cal/sec$ heat are available with the resistances $55\,\Omega $ , $110\,\Omega$ , $220\,\Omega $ and $440\,\Omega $. The heater of maximum power will be of............. $\Omega$
In potentiometer experiment when $K_1$ is closed balance length is $100\,cm$. Then what will be balancing length when $K_2$ is closed ................ $\mathrm{cm}$
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
