प्रश्न
A particular resistance wire has a resistance of 3 ohm per meter. Find :
The total resistance of three lengths of this wire each 1.5 m long, in parallel.

उत्तर
R = 3 ohm for 1 m
For 5 m : R = 3 x 5 = 15 ohm
But Area A is double i.e. 2A and Resistance is inversely proportional to area so Resistance will be half.
R = `15/2` = 7.5 ohm

What connection is used in domestic appliances and why?
A piece of wire having a resistance R is cut into five equal parts.
- How will the resistance of each part of the wire change compared with the original resistance?
- If the five parts of the wire are placed in parallel, how will the resistance of the combination change?
- What will be ratio of the effective resistance in series connection to that of the parallel connection?
Assertion: When a battery is short circuited, the terminal voltage is zero.
Reason: In a short circuit, the current is zero.
