Pooja is writing some statements but she confused to know whether the statements are correct or not? If you know the answer to this question, then tell her:

The current is directly proportional to the potential difference applied across the ends of a conductor it means that if the potential difference across the ends of a conductor is doubled, the current flowing through it also gets doubled, and if the potential difference is halved the current also gets halved.

Consider the following statements and choose the incorrect one:

We know that a thick wire has a greater area of cross section; whereas a thin wire has a smaller area of cross section. This means that a thick wire has less resistance and a thin wire has more resistance.

Keshav appeared in class test but he confused to know the incorrect statement. Would you help him to know that?

In a quiz competition, you are asked a question where you have to choose the statement which is/ are incorrect?

In series circuit, the appliances do not get the same voltage as that of the power supply line because the voltage is shared by all the appliances. The appliances get less voltage and hence do not work properly. For example, all the bulbs connected in series do not get the same voltage of 220 volts of the power supply line. They get less voltage and hence glow less brightly.

The commercial unit of energy is:

Kilowatt-hour is the commercial unit of electrical energy.

A wire of resistance R1 is cut into five equal pieces. These five pieces of wire are then connected in parallel. If the resultant resistance of this combination be R2, then the ratio R1/R2 is:

If the resistance wire is cut into five pieces, the resistance of each wire is R/5. If we connect the pieces in parallel, we will get the net resistance as R/25. Therefore, the ratio will be 25.

One coulomb charge is equivalent to the charge contained in:

Since the charge of an electron is 1.6×10−19C, 6.25 × 10 to the power 18 electrons taken together constitute (6.25 × 10 to the power 18 × 1.6 × 10−19 C) or 1 coulomb of charge.

What is meant by an electric circuit?

A continuous and closed path of an electric current is called an electric circuit.

What is fuse wire and how does it work?

The fuse is placed in series with the device. It consists of a piece of wire made of a metal or an alloy of appropriate melting point, for example aluminium, copper, iron, lead etc. If a current larger than the specified value flows through the circuit, the temperature of the fuse wire increases. This melts the fuse wire and breaks the circuit.

What do you know about a resistor?

A conductor having some appreciable resistance is called a resistor.

What is variable resistance or rheostat?

A component used to regulate current without changing the voltage source is called variable resistance.
