A2
R

Ans-V=IR V=const.
I 1/R I1/I2 = R/2R I1/I2 = 1/ 2

Q-2 A wire of resistance R is bent in form of a closed circle, what is the resistance
across a diameter of the circle?
Ans-1/R =1/(R/2)+1/(R/2) R=R/4.

Q-3 Three equal resistances are connected in series then in parallel. What will be the
ratio of their Resistances?
Ans-Rseries =3R.
Rparallel =R/3
Rseries / Rparallel =3R/(R/3)=9

Q-4 Jusitfy for any pair of resistance the equivalent resistance in series is greater
equivalent resistance in parallel .

Ans- Since, R=V/I


RA>RB
A=Series,B=Parallel

Q-5 How many bulbs of 8 should be joined in parallel to draw a current of 2A


from a battery of 4 V?
Ans-R=V/I=4/2=2 , let n be the no of bulbs.
1/R=1/R1 + 1/R2 +..1/Rn =n/8
=n/8, n=4.

Q-6 Two cubes A and B are of the same material. The side of B is thrice as that of A.
Find the ratio RA/RB.
Ans-RA = L/A RB=3L/9A
RA : RB =3:1

Q-7 3 X 1011 electrons are flowing through the filament of bulb for two minutes. Find
the current flowing through the circuit. Charge on one electron=1.6X10-19 C.
Ans-q=ne=3x1011x1.6x10-19=4.8x108C
I=q/t=4.8x108/(2x60)=4x107A

Q-8 A nichrome wire of resistivity 100X10-6ohm- m and copper wire of resistivity
1.62X10-8 ohm-m of same length and same area of cross section are connected
in series , current is passed through them, why does the nichrome wire gets
heated first?
Ans. Q=I2 Rt
Q= I2 { L/A}t
Nichrome wire has higher resistivity than copper wire . Therefore, it is heated first
