    ANSWER THE FOLLOWING :
    1. (i) Draw a closed circuit diagram consisting of a 0.5 m long nichrome wire XY, an
    ammeter, a voltmeter, four cells of 1.5 V each and a plug key.
    (ii)Following graph was plotted between V and I values :

    What would be the values of V /I ratios when the potential difference is 0.8 V,
    1.2 V and 1.6 V respectively? What conclusion do you draw from these values?
    2. Study the following electric circuit and find (i) the current flowing in the circuit

    when in use.
    (c) What is the commercial unit of electric energy? Convert it into joules.

    A is more than that of B which wire is thicker and why? For the electric circuit given
    below calculate: (30Ω, 10Ω, 5Ω)

    power of the bulb the potential difference at its ends and the energy in kWh
    consumed burning it for 5h.
    9. (a) Calculate the resistance of 1 km long copper wire of radius 1 mm. Resistivity of
    the copper is 1.72 x 10-8 Ω m.
    (b) Draw a schematic diagram of a circuit consisting of a battery of 4 cells of

    3.

    4.(a) Difference between electric energy and electric power:

    i.e. less the power of electrical device, higher is its electrical resistance.
    (c) Kilowatt hour – Commercial unit of electrical energy
    1 kWh = 1000 Wh = 1000 J/S x 3600 sec
    = 3600000 J = 3.6 x106J
    5.

    So, for different materials having same resistance per unit length, greater resistivity
    material wire has more cross-sectional area.
    Hence, wire A is thicker than that of B.
    (i) Current through each resistor
