Two bulbs consume the same power when operated at $200\, V$ and $300\, V$ respectively. When these bulbs are connected in series across a $D.C.$ source of $500\, V$,then:

The two ends of a conductor are connected to a cell having an $e.m.f. \ E$ and some internal resistance. Starting from the midpoint $P$ of the conductor,moving in the direction of the current,and returning to point $P$,which of the following graphs best represents the potential $V$ versus the distance $x$ covered along the path?

The two ends of a uniform conductor are joined to a cell of $e.m.f.$ $E$ and some internal resistance. Starting from the midpoint $P$ of the conductor,we move in the direction of current and return to $P$. The potential $V$ at every point on the path is plotted against the distance covered $(x)$. Which of the following graphs best represents the resulting curve?

If $E = at + bt^2$,what is the temperature of inversion?

The heater of an electric kettle is made of a wire of length $L$ and diameter $d$. It takes $4$ minutes to raise the temperature of $0.5 \ kg$ of water by $40 \ K$. This heater is replaced by a new heater having two wires of the same material,each of length $L$ and diameter $2d$. The way these wires are connected is given in the options. How much time in minutes will it take to raise the temperature of the same amount of water by $40 \ K$?
$(A)$ $4$ if wires are in parallel
$(B)$ $2$ if wires are in series
$(C)$ $1$ if wires are in series
$(D)$ $0.5$ if wires are in parallel

The temperature coefficient of resistance of tungsten is $4.5 \times 10^{-3} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$ and that of germanium is $-5 \times 10^{-2} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$. $A$ tungsten wire of resistance $100 \, \Omega$ is connected in series with a germanium wire of resistance $R$. The value of $R$ for which the resistance of the combination does not change with temperature is .......... $\Omega$.
