$n$ equal resistors are first connected in series and then connected in parallel. The ratio of the maximum to the minimum resistance is
$n$
$n^{2}$
$1 / n$
$1 / n^{2}$
A wire of length $L$ and resistance $R$ is stretched so that the length is doubled and area of cross-section is halved. How will its
$(a)$ resistance change ?
$(b)$ resistivity change ?
$(a)$ How much current will an electric bulb draw from a $220\, V$ source, if the resistance of the bulb filament is $1200\,ohm$ ?
$(b)$ How much current will an electric heater coil draw from a $220\, V$ source, if the resistance of the heater coil is $100\, ohm$ ?
What is meant by "electrical resistance" of a conductor ? State how resistance of a conductor is affected when $(i)$ a low current passes through it for a short duration; $(ii)$ heavy current passes through it for about $30$ seconds.
An electric bulb is connected to a $220\, V$ generator. The current is $0.50 A$. What is the power of the bulb ?
A thick wire and a thin wire of the same material are successively connected to the same circuit to find their respective resistance. Which one will have lower resistance ? Give reason.
