उत्तर
Given, emf= 15 V, internal resistance, r= 2 `Omega`
(i) Total resistance of given resistors in series, Rs = 4 + 6 = 10 `Omega`
Now, current through series combination on, Is = `"emf"/("R"_"s" + "r") = 15/(10 + 2) = 15/12` = 1.25 A
In series, the same current will pass through each resistor
.·. electrical energy spent per minute in the 6`Omega` resistor, Hs = I2 (R) t = (1.25)2 (6) (60) = 562.5 J
(ii) Total resistance of given resistors in parallel, RP = `(1/4 + 1/6) ^-1 = 2.4 Omega`
Current in parallel circuit, I = `15/(2.4 + 20) = 3.4 "A"`
In parallel, each resistor is connected across the same voltage, say V.
Then, V = e - Ir= 15 - (3.4 x 2) = 8.18 volt
:. electrical energy spent per minute in the 6Ω resistor, Hp = `"V"^2/"R" t = (8.18)^2/6 xx 60 `= 669.1 J
