The resistor R1 dissipates power P, when connected to a generator. If a resistor R2 is inserted in series with R1, the power dissipated by R1
increases
decreases
remains the same
may increase or decrease depending on the value of R1 and R2
Two batteries of emf 4V and 8V with internal resistance are connected in a circuit with a resistance of as shown in figure. The current and potential difference between the point P and Q are
Iron and silicon wires are heated from 30°C to 50°C.The correct statement is that
resistance of both the wires increases
resistance of both the wires decreases
resistance of iron wire increases and that of silicon wire decreases
resistance of iron wire decreases and that of silicon wire increases
