An electric bulb should be connected to how much voltage line if it draws an electric current of $0.5\, A$,the resistance of the filament of that bulb being $440\, \Omega$ (in $, V$)?

$A$ wire of resistance $10 \, \Omega$ is bent in the form of a closed circle. What is the effective resistance between the two points at the ends of any diameter of this circle?

What is Joule's heating effect? How can it be demonstrated experimentally? List its four applications in daily life.

Heat dissipated by a conductor when a current is passed through it is directly proportional to the resistance of the conductor.

Three incandescent bulbs of $100\, W$ each are connected in series in an electric circuit. In another circuit,another set of three bulbs of the same wattage are connected in parallel to the same source. Now,if one bulb in both the circuits gets fused,will the rest of the bulbs continue to glow in each circuit? Give reasons.

$(a)$ Why is the series arrangement not used for domestic circuits?
$(b)$ Why is tungsten used almost exclusively for the filament of electric lamps?
$(c)$ Why are the conductors of electric heating devices,such as bread toasters and electric irons,made of an alloy rather than a pure metal?
$(d)$ Why are copper and aluminium wires usually employed for electricity transmission?
$(e)$ Why does the cord of an electric heater not glow while the heating element does?
