d Suppose resistance of wires are ${R_1}$ and ${R_2}$ then $\frac{6}{5} = \frac{{{R_1}{R_2}}}{{{R_1} + {R_2}}}$. If ${R_2}$ breaks then ${R_1} = 2\,\Omega $

At what rate the potential difference between the plates of a capacitor be changed to set up a displacement current of $1\, A$ in a capacitor of $2\,\mu F$ ?
In a wire of circular cross-section with radius $r$, free electrons travel with a drift velocity $V$ when a current $I$ flows through the wire. What is the current in another wire of half the radius and of the same material when the drift velocity is $2V$
When two identical batteries of internal resistance $1 \Omega$ each are connected in series across a resistor $\mathrm{R}$, the rate of heat produced in $R$ is $J_1$. When the same batteries are connected in parallel across $R$, the rate is $\mathrm{J}_2$. If $\mathrm{J}_1=2.25 \mathrm{~J}_2$ then the value of $\mathrm{R}$ in $\Omega$ is
The charge flowing through a resistance $R$ varies with time as $Q = 2t - 8t^2$. The total heat produced in the resistance is (for $0 \leq t \leq \frac{1}{8}$)
