Draw a circuit diagram of an electric circuit containing a cell, a key, an ammeter, a resistor of in series with a combination of two resistors ( each) in parallel and a voltmeter across the parallel combination. Will the potential difference across the resistor be the same as that across the parallel combination of resistors? Give reason.

Important Questions on Electricity

What is electrical resistivity? In a series electrical circuit comprising a resistor made up of a metallic wire, the ammeter reads . The reading of the ammeter decreases to half when the length of the wire is doubled. Why?




, and are three identical bulbs connected as shown in figure. When all the three bulbs glow, a current of is recorded by the ammeter . What happens to the glow of the other two bulbs when the bulb gets fused?

, and are three identical bulbs connected as shown in figure. When all the three bulbs glow, a current of is recorded by the ammeter . What happens to the reading of , , and when the bulb gets fused?

, and are three identical bulbs connected as shown in figure. When all the three bulbs glow, a current of is recorded by the ammeter . How much power is dissipated in the circuit when all the three bulbs glow together?
