The magnitude of i in ampere unit is
1. 0.1
2. 0.3
3. 0.6
4. None of these
To draw maximum current from a combination of cells, how should the cells be grouped
1. Series
2. Parallel
3. Mixed
4. Depends upon the relative values of external and internal resistance
By ammeter, which of the following can be measured
1. Electric potential
2. Potential difference
3. Current
4. Resistance
The resistance of \(1~\text{A}\) ammeter is \(0.018~\Omega\). To convert it into \(10~\text{A}\) ammeter, the shunt resistance required will be:
1. \(0.18~\Omega\)
2. \(0.0018~\Omega\)
3. \(0.002~\Omega\)
4. \(0.12~\Omega\)
For measurement of potential difference, the potentiometer is preferred in comparison to the voltmeter because:
1. the potentiometer is more sensitive than the voltmeter.
2. the resistance of the potentiometer is less than
the voltmeter.
3. the potentiometer is cheaper than the voltmeter.
4. the potentiometer does not take current from the circuit.
In Wheatstone's bridge P = 9 ohm, Q = 11 ohm, R = 4 ohm and S = 6 ohm. How much resistance must be put in parallel to the resistance S to balance the bridge
1. 24 ohm
2. ohm
3. 26.4 ohm
4. 18.7 ohm
A potentiometer is an ideal device of measuring potential difference because
1. It uses a sensitive galvanometer
2. It does not disturb the potential difference it measures
3. It is an elaborate arrangement
4. It has a long wire hence heat developed is quickly radiated
A battery of 6 volts is connected to the terminals of a three metre long wire of uniform thickness and resistance of the order of 100 Ω. The difference of potential between two points separated by 50cm on the wire will be :
1. 1 V
2. 1.5 V
3. 2 V
4. 3 V
A potentiometer is used for the comparison of e.m.f. of two cells E1 and E2. For cell E1 the no deflection point is obtained at 20cm and for E2 the no deflection point is obtained at 30cm. The ratio of their e.m.f.'s will be
1. 2/3
2. 1/2
3. 1
4. 2
