प्रश्न
If the current flowing through a fixed resistor is halved, the heat produced in it will become:
विकल्प
double
one-half
one-fourth
four times
Advertisements
उत्तर
one-fourth
Explanation:
This is so because the heat produced is directly proportional to the square of the current passing through the resistor.
