Two conductors made of the same material are connected across a common potential difference. Conductor $A$ has twice the diameter and twice the length of conductor $B$. The power delivered to the two conductors ${P_A}$ and ${P_B}$ respectively is such that ${P_A}/{P_B}$ equals to
Two heaters $A$ and $B$ have power rating of $1 \mathrm{~kW}$ and $2 \mathrm{~kW}$, respectively. Those two are first connected in series and then in parallel to a fixed power source. The ratio of power outputs for these two cases is:
A steady current $I$ flows through a wire of radius $r$, length $L$ and resistivity $\rho$. The current produces heat in the wire. The rate of heat loss in a wire is proportional to its surface area. The steady temperature of the wire is independent of
The figure shows three circuits $I, II$ and $III$ which are connected to a $3\,V$ battery. If the powers dissipated by the configurations $I, II$ and $III$ are $P_1 , P_2$ and $P_3$ respectively, then
Two wires have resistance of $2$ $\Omega$ and $4$ $\Omega$ connected to same voltage, ratio of heat dissipated at resistance is
