2. An electric heater is salted at 1500w. How much heat is produced per

hour?
3. How is an ammeter connected in a circuit to measure current flowing
through it?
4. Define the term ‘volt’
5. Work done to move 1coulomb charge from one point to another point on a
charged conductor having potential 10volt is
2×3=6
6. Calculate the resistance of a metal wire of length 2m and area of cross
section 1.55 × 10⁶ m², if the resistivity of the metal be 2.8 × 10-⁸ Ωm
7. You take two resistors of resistance 2R and 3R and connect them in
parallel in an electric circuit. Calculate the ratio of the electrical power
consumed by 2R and 3R?
8. I) Define one ohm
II) Define Resistivity
3×3=9
9. A small bulb has a resistance of 2Ω when cold. It takes up a current of 0.4
A from a source of 4V and then starts glowing. Calculate (i) the resistance
of the bulb when it is glowing and(ii) Elaborate on the reason for the
difference in resistance?
10. i) Calculate the resistance of 2 km long copper wire of radius 2 mm.
ii) A torch bulb is rated at 3V and 600mA,calculate the power
11. i) State and derive joule’s law
ii) Derive the expression for three resistors connected in parallel
1×5=5
12. How will the resistance of each part of the wire compare with the
original resistance (ii) If the five parts of the wire are placed in
parallel, how will the resistance of the combination compare with
the resistance of the original wire? What will be ratio of resistance
in series to that of parallel?
