When current is passed in an antimony-bismuth couple,then:

  • A
    The junction becomes hot when the current flows from bismuth to antimony.
  • B
    The junction becomes hot when the current flows from antimony to bismuth.
  • C
    Both junctions become hot.
  • D

If two wires having resistance $R$ and $2R$ are joined in series and then in parallel,what is the ratio of heat generated in these two situations,assuming the same voltage is applied?

$A$ wire of $20 \Omega$ is immersed in ice. If $10 \ A$ current is passed through this wire for $1 \ minute$,the ice completely melts. The mass of the ice is nearly $(L_{\text{ice}} = 79.7 \ cal \ g^{-1})$

$A$ cell of emf $E$ is connected to a resistance $R_{1}$ for time $t$ and the amount of heat generated in it is $H$. If the resistance $R_{1}$ is replaced by another resistance $R_{2}$ and is connected to the cell for the same time $t$, the amount of heat generated in $R_{2}$ is $4H$. Then the internal resistance $r$ of the cell is:
