Two resistances $r_1$ and $r_2\left(r_1 < r_2\right)$ are joined in parallel. The equivalent resistance $R$ is such that
A$R > r_1+r_2$
B$R > \sqrt{r_1 r_2}$
C$r_1 < R < r_2$
D$R < r_1$

In the circuit shown, the reading of the Ammeter is doubled after the switch is closed. Each resistor has a resistance $ = 1\,\Omega $ and the ideal cell has an $e.m.f. = 10\, V$. Then, the Ammeter has a coil resistance equal to ................ $\Omega$
A cable of resistance $10\,\Omega $ carries electric power from a generator producing $250\, kW$ at $10000\, volt$. The current in the cable is ............. $A$
In an electrolyte $3.2 \times {10^{18}}$ bivalent positive ions drift to the right per second while $3.6 \times {10^{18}}$ monovalent negative ions drift to the left per second. Then the current is
Two cells, having the same $e.m.f.$ are connected in series through an external resistance $R.$ Cells have internal resistances $r_1$ and $r_2\,\, (r_1 > r_2)$ respectively. When the circuit is closed, the potential difference across the first cell is zero. The value of $R$ is
A copper wire has a square cross-section, $2.0\, mm$ on a side. It carries a current of $8\, A$ and the density of free electrons is $8 \times {10^{28}}\,{m^{ - 3}}$. The drift speed of electrons is equal to
A current of $2.0$ ampere passes through a cell of $e.m.f$. $1.5\, volts$ having internal resistance of $0.15\, ohm$. The potential difference measured, in $volts$, across both the ends of the cell will be
In india electricity is supplied for domestic use at $220\,\,V$. It is supplied at $110\,\, V$ in $USA$. If resistance of $60\,\, W$ bulb for use in India is $R$, then the resistance of $60\,\, W$ bulb for use in $USA$ will be
