CBSE Physics Current Electricity Expected Questions for Quick Revision : Unit II

3 Marks Questions [Numerical and Derivation Type)

1. Draw circuit diagram for comparing two reistances, using a metre bridge. Write the principle of the experiment. Why is this method used for two resistances of the same order of magnitude ?
Answer

2. With the help of a circuit diagram, explain how you would compare the resistances of two given resistors using the potentiometer ?
Answer

3. A dry cell of e.m.f. 1.6 V and internal resistance 0 • 1 Q is connected to a reistor R ohm. If the current drawn from the tell is 2A
(i) What is the voltage drop across it ?
(it) What is the energy dissipated by the resistor ?
Answer

4. Define the term resistivity of a conductor. How does resistivity of a conductor vary with temperature ?
Answer

5. A wire of resistance 1 Q is drawn out so that its length is three times the original length. Calculate the new resistance, resistivity and density remains unchanged.
Answer

6. Two cells of e.m.f. E1, and E2 (E1 > E2) are connected as shown in the figure.
