The resistance of the wire is $R_1$. It is now stretched (keeping the volume constant) without breaking so that its length becomes three times. Now the resistance becomes $R_2$ and the value of $R_2: R_1 \text{is} n:1.$ What is the value of $n$?

A carbon resistance has the following colour code. What is the value of the resistance?

In a conductor, if the number of conduction electrons per unit volume is $8.5\times {10}^{28}{\mathrm{m}}^{-3}$ and mean free time is $25f\mathrm{s}$ (femtosecond), its approximate resistivity is: $\left({\mathrm{m}}_{\mathrm{e}}=9.1\times {10}^{-31}\mathrm{k}\mathrm{g}\right)$

Model a torch battery of length $l$ to be made up of a thin cylindrical bar of radius $a$ and a concentric thin cylindrical shell of radius $b$ filled in between with an electrolyte of resistivity $\rho$ (see figure). If the battery is connected to a resistance of value $R$, the maximum Joule heating in $R$ will take place for :

The Wheatstone bridge shown in the figure below, gets balanced when the carbon resistor used as $R_1$ has the colour code (orange, red, brown). The resistors $R_2$ and $R_4$ are $80 \mathrm{\Omega }$ and $40 \mathrm{\Omega }$, respectively. Assuming that the colour code for the carbon resistors gives their accurate values, the colour code for the carbon resistor, used as $R_3$, would be
