Q2. Answer the following in brief: (any 5)(15 marks)(3 marks each)
1) The resistance of a conductor of length x is r. If its area of cross section is a, what is its
resistivity? What is its unit?
2) Explain the need for a reference atom for atomic mass. Give some information about two
reference atoms.
3) Derive: resistors in parallel
4) Explain with examples what is meant by a 'mole' of a substance.
5) State Ohms law and derive its expression?
6) Draw an electric circuit and label all the parts.
1) The resistance of a 1m long nichrome wire is 6 W. If we reduce the length of the wire to 70
cm. what will its resistance be?
2) Resistors having resistances of 15 W, 20 W and 10 W are connected in parallel. What is the
effective resistance in the circuit?
3) The resistance of the filament in a light bulb is 1000 W. If the bulb is fed by a current from a
source of potential difference 230 V, how much current will flow through it?
