Two electric bulbs rated $P_1 \text{ watt}, V \text{ volts}$ and $P_2 \text{ watt}, V \text{ volts}$ are connected in parallel and $V \text{ volts}$ are applied to the combination. The total power consumed will be:

  • A
    $P_1 + P_2 \text{ watt}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{P_1 P_2} \text{ watt}$
  • C
    $\frac{P_1 P_2}{P_1 + P_2} \text{ watt}$
  • D

The resistance of an electrical toaster has a temperature dependence given by $R(T) = R_0[1 + \alpha(T - T_0)]$ in its range of operation. At $T_0 = 300\,K, R = 100\,\Omega$ and at $T = 500\,K, R = 120\,\Omega$. The toaster is connected to a voltage source of $200\,V$ and its temperature is raised at a constant rate from $300\,K$ to $500\,K$ in $30\,s$. The total work done in raising the temperature is:

$A$ wire of resistance $R$ is connected across a cell of emf $\varepsilon$ and internal resistance $r$. The current through the circuit is $I$. In time $t$,the work done by the battery to establish the current $I$ is

According to Joule's law,if the potential difference across a conductor having a material of specific resistance remains constant,then the heat produced in the conductor is directly proportional to
