Important Questions on Current Electricity
is a square where each side is a uniform wire of resistance . A point lies on such that if a uniform wire of resistance is connected across and constant potential difference is applied across and then and are equipotential :

In the box shown current enters at and leaves at . If choose the branch in which current is zero

When an ammeter of negligible internal resistance is inserted in series with circuit it reads . When the voltmeter of very large resistance is connected across it reads . When the point and are shorted by a conducting wire, the voltmeter measures across the battery. The internal resistance of the battery is equal to

Under what conditions current passing through the resistance can be increased by short circuiting the battery of . The internal resistances of the two batteries are and , respectively.


A milliammeter of range and resistance is joined in a circuit as shown. The metre gives full-scale deflection for current when and are used as its terminals, i.e., current enters at and leaves at ( is left isolated). The value of is

In the arrangement shown in the figure when the switch is open, the galvanometer shows no deflection for . When the switch
is closed, the galvanometer shows no deflection for . The internal resistance of cell, and the emf of the other battery are respectively.

The variation of current and voltage is as shown in figure . The variation of power with current is best shown by which of the following graph
