A
In series fine wire liberates more energy while in parallel thick wire will liberate more energy
a (a) In series, is same), i.e. in series Fine wire (high $R$) liberates more energy.
In parallel, $P \propto \frac{1}{R}(V$is same) i.e. thick wire (less $R$) liberates more energy.

The adjoining figure shows the connections of potentiometer experiment to determine internal resistance of of a leclanche cell. When the cell is on open circuit the balancing length of the potentiometer wire is $3.4\, m$ and on closing the key $K_2$ the balancing length becomes $1.7\, m$ . If the resistance $R$ through which current is drawn is $10\,\Omega $ then the internal resistance of the cell is .............. $\Omega$
A storage battery is connected to a charger for charging with a voltage of $12.5\,\,Volts$. The internal resistance of the storage battery is $1\,\,\Omega$ . When the charging current is $0.5\,\,A$, the emf of the storage battery is: ............... $volts$
$10\,Cells$, each of emf $'E'$ and internal resistance $'r'$, are connected in series to a variable external resistance. Figure shows the variation of terminal potential difference of their combination with the current drawn from the combination.$Emf$ of each cell is ............. $V$
A galvanometer together with an unknown resistance in series is connected to two identical batteries each of $1.5\, V$. When the batteries are connected in series, the galvanometer records a current of $1\,A$, and when batteries are in parallel the current is $0.6\,A$. What is the internal resistance of the battery ?
A wire of resistance $R_{1}$ is drawn out so that its length is increased by twice of its original length.The ratio of new resistance to original resistance is.
In a meter bridge experiment the balance point in obtained if the gaps are closed by $2\,\Omega$ and $3\,\Omega$. A shunt of $x\,\Omega$ is added to $3\,\Omega$ resistor to shift the balancing point by $22.5\,cm$. The value of $X$ is $................$
