  • A
    Neither the ammeter nor the voltmeter is damaged.
  • B
    Both the ammeter and the voltmeter are damaged.
  • C
    Only the voltmeter is damaged.
  • D

Three $60\, W$ light bulbs are mistakenly wired in series and connected to a $120\, V$ power supply. Assume the light bulbs are rated for single connection to $120\, V$. With the mistaken connection,the power dissipated by each bulb is: .................. $W$

The following figures show different combinations of identical bulb$(s)$ connected to identical battery(ies). Which option is correct regarding the total power dissipated in the circuit?

Shown in the figure is a semicircular metallic strip that has thickness $t$ and resistivity $\rho$. Its inner radius is $R_1$ and outer radius is $R_2$. If a voltage $V_0$ is applied between its two ends,a current $I$ flows in it. In addition,it is observed that a transverse voltage $\Delta V$ develops between its inner and outer surfaces due to purely kinetic effects of moving electrons (ignore any role of the magnetic field due to the current). Then (figure is schematic and not drawn to scale)-
$(A)$ $I = \frac{V_0 t}{\pi \rho} \ln \left(\frac{R_2}{R_1}\right)$
$(B)$ the outer surface is at a higher voltage than the inner surface
$(C)$ the outer surface is at a lower voltage than the inner surface
$(D)$ $\Delta V \propto I^2$
