A heater coil connected to a supply of a $220\, V$ is dissipating some power ${P_1}.$ The coil is cut into half and the two halves are connected in parallel. The heater now dissipates a power ${P_2}.$ The ratio of power ${P_1}\,\,:\,\,{P_2}$ is
$2:1$
$1:2$
$1:4$
$4:1$
Three identical bulbs $B_1, B_2$ and $B_3$ are connected to the mains as shown in figure. If $B_3$ is disconnected from the circuit by opening switch $S$, then incandescence of bulb $B_1$ will
Two resistances ${R_1}$ and ${R_2}$ when connected in series and parallel with $120\, V$ line, power consumed will be $25\, W$ and $100\, W$ respectively. Then the ratio of power consumed by ${R_1}$ to that consumed by ${R_2}$ will be
Two resistors of resistance, $100\,\Omega$ and $200\,\Omega$ are connected in parallel in an electrical circuit. The ratio of the thermal energy developed in $100\,\Omega$ to that in $200\,\Omega$ in a given time is:
The amount of heat produced in a resistor when a current is passed through it can be found using
An electric kettle takes $4\, A$ current at $220\, V$. How much time will it take to boil $1\, kg$ of water from room temperature $20\,^\circ C$ ? The temperature of boiling water is $100\,^\circ C$ .................. $minutes$
