Two electric bulbs $A$ and $B$ are rated as $60\, W$ and $100\, W$. They are connected in parallel to the same source. Then,
A
Both draw the same current
B$A$ draws more current than $B$
C$B$ draws more current than $A$
D
Current drawn are in the ratio of their resistances

C$B$ draws more current than $A$
c (c) $i \propto \frac{1}{R}$ and $P \propto \frac{1}{R}$ $ \Rightarrow $ $i \propto P$
i.e. in parallel bulb of higher power will draw more current.

The circuit shown here is used to compare the emf of two cells $E_1$ and $E_2 (E_1 > E_2)$. The null point is at $C$ when the galvanometer is connected to $E_1$. When the galvanometer is connected to $E_2$, the null point will be
A copper wire is stretched to make it $0.5\%$ longer. The percentage change in its electric resistance if its volume remains unchanged is ................ $\%$
A cylindrical resistance is connected across battery $\varepsilon $ . Cylinder has uniform free electron density, mid part of cylinder has larger radius as shown in figure. Then $V_d$ (drift velocity) $V/S$ (distance across the length of the resistance)
A heating coil can heat the water of a vessel from $20\,^oC$ to $60\,^oC$ in $30$ minutes. Two such heating coils are put in series and then used to heat the same amount of water through the same temperature range. The time taken now will be ............ $min$ (neglecting thermal capacity of the coils)
Four lamps are connected in the way shown in the figure. When switch $S_2$ is open and switch $S_1$ is on position $-2$ , lamp $-b$ is the brightest, and lamp $-c$ and lamp $-d$ are the dimmest and are of the same brightness. Now $S_2$ is closed and $S_1$ is on position $-1$ , the sequence in brightness of the lamps is (with the first in the sequence being the brightest)
Four ammeters with identical internal resistance $r$ and a resistor $R$ are connected to a current source as given. if reading of $A_1$ and $A_2$ is $3\ A$ and $5\ A$ respectively then the reading $A_4$ is ............. $A$
