a) 144000 J b) 1440 J c) 140 J d) 14400 J
3. The resistance of a wire is 20 ohms. It is stretched so that the length becomes four times, then new resistance of the wire will be:
a) 6.67 ohm b) 60 ohms c) 320 ohms d) 180 ohms
4. Which of the following combination of length L and cross sectional area A will lead to smallest resistance?
a) L and A b) 2L and A/2 c) L/2 and 2A d) any of above
Q#2: Answer the following questions: 4*2=8
1. Why we prefer potentiometer over CRO and digital voltmeter?
2. What is potentiometer? What is its principle?
3. Describe a circuit which will give a continuously varying potential.
4. Is the filament resistance lower or higher in a 500 W, 220 V light bulb than in a 100 W, 220 V bulb?
Q#3: 1*8=8
a) What is Wheatstone bridge? How it can be used to determine an unknown resistance?
b) The potential difference between the terminals of a battery in open circuit is 2.2 V. When it is connected across a resistance of
5.0 Ω , the potential falls to 1.8 V. Calculate the current and the internal resistance of the battery.
