FAQs on DC Pandey Solutions: Current Electricity- 2 - DC Pandey Solutions for JEE Physics

1. What is the formula for calculating electric current?
Ans. The formula for calculating electric current is I = Q/t, where I represents the current, Q represents the charge, and t represents the time.
2. How is resistance related to current flow?
Ans. Resistance is directly proportional to the obstruction of current flow. Higher resistance leads to a decrease in current flow, while lower resistance allows for a higher current to pass through a circuit.
3. What is Kirchhoff's current law?
Ans. Kirchhoff's current law states that the sum of currents entering a junction in an electrical circuit is equal to the sum of currents leaving the junction. It is based on the principle of conservation of electric charge.
4. How does the length and cross-sectional area of a wire affect its resistance?
Ans. The length of a wire is directly proportional to its resistance, meaning that as the length increases, the resistance also increases. On the other hand, the cross-sectional area of a wire is inversely proportional to its resistance. A larger cross-sectional area results in lower resistance.
5. What is the difference between series and parallel circuits in terms of current flow?
Ans. In a series circuit, the current remains the same at all points, while the voltage drops across each component. In a parallel circuit, the voltage remains the same across all components, but the current splits and flows through different paths.
