2. If the resistance of a certain copper wire is 1 ohm, then the resistance of a similar nichrome wire will be about ?

60 ohm

45 ohm

30 ohm

25 ohm

Answer: 60 ohm

Explanation:


3. The resistivity of insulators is of the order of ?

10^6 ohm-m

10^-8 ohm-m

10^-6 ohm-m

10^1 ohm-m

Explanation:


4. To get 2 ohm resistance using only 6 ohm resistors, the number of them required is ?

6

4

3

2

Answer: 3

Explanation:

Three resistors of 2 ohm is required to get 6 ohm because resultant is more than individual so they all must be connected in series.


5. In an electrical circuit two resistors of 2 ohm and 4 ohm respectively are connected in series to a 6 V battery. The heat dissipated by the 4 ohm resistor in 5 s will be ?

30 J

10 J

5 J

20 J

Answer: 20 J

Explanation:


6. choose the incorrect statement ?

The heating element of electric iron is made of nichrome wire which is an insulator.

Those substance which have very low electrical resistance are called good conductors.

Those substances which have comparatively high electrical resistance, are called resistors.

Those substances which have infinitely high electrical resistance are called insulators.

Answer: The heating element of electric iron is made of nichrome wire which is an insulator.

Explanation:

The heating element of electric iron is made of nichrome wire which is a resistor. The electric wires are made of copper which is a good conductor but their covering is made of plastic which is an example of insulator.

Explanation:


10. A battery of 10 volt carries 20,000 C of charge through a resistance of 20 ohm. The work done in 10 seconds is ?

2 × 10^2 joule

2 × 10^4 joule

2 × 10^3 joule

2 × 10^5 joule

Answer: 2 × 10^5 joule

Explanation:

W= qV= 20000 × 10 = 2,00, 000 = 2 × 105 J
