$32$ cells, each of $emf$ $3V$, are connected in series and kept in a box. Externally, the combination shows an $emf$ of $84\, V$. The number of cells reversed in the combination is
Six resistors of $3 \;\Omega$ each are connected along the sides of a hexagon and three resistors of $6\; \Omega$ each are connected along $A C, A D$ and $A E$ as shown in the figure. The equivalent resistance between $A$ and $B$ is equal to
In given arrangement $E_1 = 5\, volts$ $E_2 = 7\, volt$ balancing length is $6\,m$ if terminals of $E_2$ are reversed then new balancing length will be
The ratio of the equivalent resistance of the network (shown in figure) between the points $a$ and ${b}$ when switch is open and switch is closed is ${x}: 8 .$ The value of ${x}$ is ..... .
Two resistors having equal resistances are joined in series and a current is passed through the combination. Neglect any variation in resistance as the temperature changes. In a given time interval
Five cells each of emf $E$ and internal resistance $r$ are connected in series. Due to oversight one cell is connected wrongly. The equivalent internal resistance of the combination is ........... $r$
A copper wire of length $1\, m$ and radius $1\, mm$ is joined in series with an iron wire of length $2\, m$ and radius $3\, mm$ and a current is passed through the wires. The ratio of the current density in the copper and iron wires is
By a cell a current of $0.9\, A$ flows through $2\, ohm$ resistor and $0.3\,A$ through $7\, ohm$ resistor. The internal resistance of the cell is ............ $\Omega$
A student uses the resistance of a known resistor $(1 \,\Omega)$ to calibrate a voltmeter and an ammeter using the circuits shown below. The student measures the ratio of the voltage to current to be $1 \times 10^3 \,\Omega$ in circuit $(a)$ and $0.999 \,\Omega$ in circuit $(b)$. From these measurements, the resistance (in $\Omega$ ) of the voltmeter and ammeter are found to be close to
