Detailed Solution for 31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 6

For maximum current, the two batteries
should be connected in series. The current
will be maximum when external resistance is
equal to the total internal resistance of cells
i.e. 2Ω. Hence power devloped across the
resistacne R will be

31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 7

You are given several identical resistances eachof value R = 10Ω and each capable of carrying amaximum current of one ampere. It is required tomake a suitable combination of these resistancesof 5Ω which can carry a current of 4 ampere. Theminimum number of resistances of the type Rthat will be required for this job is [1990]

Detailed Solution for 31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 7

To carry a current of 4 ampere, we need four
paths, each carrying a current of one ampere.

Let r be the resistance of each path. These
are connected in parallel. Hence, their
equivalent resistance will be r/4. According
to the given problem r/4 = 5 or r = 20Ω
For this propose two resistances should be
connected. There are four such
combinations. Hence, the total number of
resistance = 4 × 2 = 8.

In the network shown in the Fig, each resistance is 1Ω. The effective resistance between A and B  is   [1990]

Detailed Solution for 31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 8

At A current is distributed and at B currents
are collected. Between A and B, the
distribution is symmetrical. It has been
shown in the figure. It appears that current
in AO and OB remains same. At O, current i4
returns back without any change. If we
detach O from AB there will not be any
change in distribution.
Now, CO & OD will be in series hence its
total resistance = 2Ω
It is in parallel with CD, so, equivalent
resistance = 

This equivalent resistance is in series with
AC & DB, so, total resistance

Now 8/3 Ω is parallel to AB, that is, 2Ω so
total resistance

Between C & D, the equivalent resistance is
given by

Equivalent resistance along

∴ Effective resistance between A and B is

31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 13

Current through 3 Ω resistor is

0.8 amp., then potential drop through 4Ω resistor is           [1993]

Detailed Solution for 31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 13

Voltage across 3 Ω resistance = 3 × 0.8 = 2.4V
This voltage is the same across 6 Ω
resistance. Hence current through this
resistance

Total current in the circuit
= 0.8 + 0.4 = 1.2 amp
Voltage across 4 Ω resistance
= 4 × 1.2 = 4.8 volts

31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 14

A 4 μF capacitor is charged to 400 volts andthen its plates are joined through a resistance of1k Ω. The heat produced in the resistance is           [1994]

31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 15

In the circuit shown in Fig, the current in 4 Ω resistance is 1.2 A. What is the potential difference between B and C.       [1994]

Detailed Solution for 31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 15

The potential difference across 4Ω resistance
is given by

V = 4 × i1 = 4 × 1.2 = 4.8 volt

So, the potential across 8Ω resistance is also
4.8 volt.

Current in 2Ω resistance i = i1 + i2
∴ i = 1.2 + 0.6 = 1.8 amp
Potential difference across 2Ω resistance
VBC = 1.8 × 2 = 3.6volts

31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 16

A heating coil is labelled 100 W, 220 V. The coil iscut in half and the two pieces are joined in parallelto the same source. The energy now liberatedper second is [1995]

Detailed Solution for 31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 16

Power of heating coil = 100 W and voltage
(V) = 220 volts. When the heating coil is cut
into two equal parts and these parts are
joined in parallel, then the resistance of the
coil is reduced to one-fourth of the previous
value. Therefore energy liberated per second
becomes 4 times i.e., 4 × 100 = 400 J.

Length of each wire = ; Area of thick wire
(A1) = 3A; Area of thin wire (A2) = A and resistance of thick wire (R1) = 10 Ω

Resistance   (if is constant)

The equivalent resistance of these two
resistors in series
= R1 + R, = 30 + 10 = 40Ω.

If the resistance of a conductor is 5 Ω at 50ºCand 7Ω at 100ºC, then the mean temperature coefficient of resistance (of the material) is[1996]

Detailed Solution for 31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 19

Correct Answer :- a

Explanation : We know that RT = R0(1+αT)  where RT = resistance at temp T, R0 = resistance at temp T = 0oC and α= temperature coefficient of resistance.

Here, 5 = R0(1+α.50)...(1)

and 7 = R0(1+α.100)...(2)

(2)/(1)

⇒ 7/5 = (1+100α)/(1+50α)

7+350α = 5+500α

150α=2

⇒α=2/150

=0.013/oC

We know from the Kirchhoff 's first law that
the algebraic sum of the current meeting at
any junction in the circuit is zero (i.e. ∑i = 0)
or the total charge remains constant.
Therefore, Kirchhoff's first law at a junction
deals with the conservation of charge

A 5ºC rise in temperature is observed in aconductor by passing a current. When thecurrent is doubled the rise in temperature will beapproximately [1998]

Detailed Solution for 31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 28

Since H ∝ I2 , doubling the current will
produce 4 times heat. Hence, the rise in
temperature will also be 4 times i.e., rise in
temperature = 4 × 5 = 20ºC.

The resistance of a discharge tube is [1999]

Detailed Solution for 31 Years NEET Previous Year Questions: Current Electricity - 3 - Question 29

In discharge tube the current is due to flow
of positive ions and electrons. Moreover,
secondary emission of electrons is also
possible. So V-I curve is non-linear; hence
resistance is non-ohmic.
