The resistance of an electrical toaster has a temperature dependence given by R(T) = R₀ [1 + $$\alpha $$(T − T₀)] in its range of operation. At T₀ = 300 K, R = 100 $$\Omega $$ and at T = 500 K, R = 120 $$\Omega $$. The toaster is connected to a voltage source at 200 V and its temperature is raised at a constant rate from 300 to 500 K in 30 s. The total work done in raising the temperature is :

A galvanometer has a 50 division scale. Battery has no internal resistance. It is found that there is deflection of 40 divisions when R = 2400 $$\Omega $$. Deflection becomes 20 divisions when resistance taken from resistance box is 4900 $$\Omega $$. Then we can conclude :

A 50 $$\Omega $$ resistance is connected to a battery of 5 V. A galvanometer of resistance 100 $$\Omega $$ is to be used as an ammeter to measure current through the resistance, for this a resistance r_s is connected to the galvanometer. Which of the following connections should be employed if the measured current is within 1% of thecurrent without the ammeter in the circuit ?

In the circuit shown, the resistance r is a variable resistance. If for r = fR, the heat generation in r is maximum then the value of f is :
