difference across the terminals of a cell for r =R is _______________.
5) The sequence of bands marked on a carbon resistor is brown,black,brown,gold. The value of
the resistance is ___________________
6) In slide wire bridge experiment, copper strips are used in place of copper wires, due to their
low _______________.
7) A cell of emf E and internal resistance r is connected across a variable resistor R .Plot a graph
showing the variation of terminal potential difference V with resistance R. Predict from the
graph the condition under which V=E.
8) An electric current is passed through a circuit containing two wires of the same material
connected in parallel. If the length and radii of the wires are in the ratio 2/3 and 4/3 ,then find
the ratio of currents passing through the wires.
9) A battery of emf E and internal resistance r sends current I 1 and I 2 ,when connected to external
resistances R 1 and R 2 respectively. Find the emf and internal resistance of the battery.
10) Calculate the current drawn from the battery by the network of resistors shown in the figure.
