This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation- If the current in auxiliary circuit (lower circuit containing primary cell) decreases, and potential difference across A and jockey/increases. Then deflection in galvanometer is one sided and the deflection decrea
This is a Short Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Explanation- If the value of R is increased, the current through the wire will decrease which in turn decreases the potential difference across AB, and hence potential gradient (k) across AB decreases. Since, at neutral p

Explanation – power consumed through wire is P=V2/R =I2R . for transmitting the power there are two types either current is large or voltage is less or vice versa. But when current in the circuit is higher then power loss is a

Explanation- Alloys are used for making standard resistance coil because they have low temperature coefficient of resistance with less temperature sensitivity. The alloys also have high resistivity and hence high resistance, b

Explanation- For the selection of metal for wiring in home the main criterion are: the availability, conductivity and the cost of the metal. The Cu wires or Al wires are used for wiring in the home. The main consideratio

Explanation- Metallic strips have negligible resistance and need not to be counted in the length l1, of the null point of potentiometer. That's why the thick metallic strips are used in potentiometer. It is for the convenience

Explanation- In a Wheatstone bridge the main advantage of null point method is that the resistance of galvanometer does not affect the balance point, there is no need to determine current in resistances and the internal resist

Explanation – In the circuit when an electron approaches a junction, in addition to the uniform E that faces it normally (which keep the drift velocity fixed), as drift velocity (vd) is directly proportional to Electric field
