Two circular rings of identical radii and resistance of 36 Ω each are placed in such a way that they cross each other’s centre C1 and C2 as shown in the figure. Conducting joints are made at intersection points A and B of the rings. An ideal cell of emf 20 V is connected across A and B. Find the power delivered by the cell (in 102 W).

A battery has an open circuit potential difference of 6 V between its terminals. When a load resistance of 60 Ω is connected across the battery, the total power dissipated by the load resistance is 0.4 W. When a load resistance (R) is connected with such a battery the power dissipated in the circuit is maximum. Calculate the power dissipated in R in Watt W.
