In the circuit shown,$E, F, G$,and $H$ are cells of e.m.f. $2\,V, 1\,V, 3\,V$,and $1\,V$ respectively,and their internal resistances are $2\,\Omega, 1\,\Omega, 3\,\Omega$,and $1\,\Omega$ respectively.

$A$ cell having an emf $\varepsilon$ and internal resistance $r$ is connected across a variable external resistance $R$. As the resistance $R$ is increased,the plot of potential difference $V$ across $R$ is given by:

Assertion: In a simple battery circuit,the point of the lowest potential is the positive terminal of the battery.
Reason: The current flows towards the point of the higher potential,as it does in such a circuit from the negative to the positive terminal.

For the circuit shown in the figure:
$(A)$ The current $I$ through the battery is $7.5 \text{ mA}$.
$(B)$ The potential difference across $R_L$ is $18 \text{ V}$.
$(C)$ The ratio of powers dissipated in $R_1$ and $R_2$ is $3$.
$(D)$ If $R_1$ and $R_2$ are interchanged,the magnitude of the power dissipated in $R_L$ will decrease by a factor of $9$.

In Circuit-$1$ and Circuit-$2$ shown in the figures,$R_1=1 \Omega, R_2=2 \Omega$ and $R_3=3 \Omega$. $P_1$ and $P_2$ are the power dissipations in Circuit-$1$ and Circuit-$2$ when the switches $S_1$ and $S_2$ are in open conditions,respectively. $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ are the power dissipations in Circuit-$1$ and Circuit-$2$ when the switches $S_1$ and $S_2$ are in closed conditions,respectively. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
$(A)$ When a voltage source of $6 V$ is connected across $A$ and $B$ in both circuits,$P_2 > P_1$.
$(B)$ When a constant current source of $2 A$ is connected across $A$ and $B$ in both circuits,$P_1 > P_2$.
$(C)$ When a voltage source of $6 V$ is connected across $A$ and $B$ in Circuit-$1$,$Q_1 > P_1$.
$(D)$ When a constant current source of $2 A$ is connected across $A$ and $B$ in both circuits,$Q_1 > Q_2$.
