प्रश्न
Two conductors are made of the same material and have the same length. Conductor A is a solid wire of diameter 1 mm. Conductor B is a hollow tube of outer diameter 2 mm and inner diameter 1 mm. Find the ratio of resistance RA to RB.
उत्तर
We know that the resistance of wire is `R = ρ l/A` where A is cross-sectional area of conductor and ρ is the specific resistance or resistivity and L is the length of conductor.
The resistance of first conductor
`R_A = (ρl)/(pi(10^-3 xx 0.5)^2`
The resistance of second conductor,
`R_B = (ρl)/(pi[(10^-3)^2 - (0.5 xx 10^-3)^2]`
Now, the ratio of two resistors is given by
`R_A/R_B = ((10^-3)^2 - (0.5 xx 10^-3)^2)/(0.5 xx 10^-3)^2` = 3:1

The variable resistance is called ____________.
Suppose there is a circuit consisting of only resistances and batteries and we have to double (or increase it to n-times) all voltages and all resistances. Show that currents are unaltered. Do this for circuit of Example 3.7 in the NCERT Text Book for Class XII.
The circuit depicted in the figure is employed for studying Ohm's Law. Instead of using a standard resistor, a student opts for a glass tube filled with mercury (tube 1), connected to the circuit through two electrodes E1 & E2. He records the readings of the ammeter and voltmeter, thereby calculating the resistance. The student repeats the experiment by substituting tube 1 with tube 2, where the same amount of mercury fills the tube 2.

- the resistance in both the cases.
- the voltmeter readings in both the cases.
- the specific resistance in both the cases.
