Two heater wires of equal length are first connected in series and then in parallel. The ratio of heat produced in the two cases is

Let there be $n$ resistors $R_1, \dots, R_n$ with $R_{\max} = \max \{R_1, \dots, R_n\}$ and $R_{\min} = \min \{R_1, \dots, R_n\}$. Show that when they are connected in parallel,the resultant resistance $R_p < R_{\min}$ and when they are connected in series,the resultant resistance $R_s > R_{\max}$. Interpret the result physically.

The equivalent resistance of a series combination of two resistors is $s$. When they are connected in parallel,the equivalent resistance is $p$. If $s = np$,then the minimum value for $n$ is (Round off to the nearest integer).

Eight copper wires of length $l$ and diameter $d$ are joined in parallel to form a single composite conductor of resistance $R$. If a single copper wire of length $2\,l$ has the same resistance $R$,then its diameter will be $.....d$.

Explain the series connection of resistors. Derive the equation for the equivalent resistance $(R_S)$.

The figure shows a tetrahedron where each edge has a resistance $r$. If a battery is connected between any two vertices of the tetrahedron,identify the correct statement$(s)$.
