    more than $1 \,kW$
  • B
    less than $1 \,kW$,but not zero
  • C
    $1 \,kW$
  • D

Two conductors made of the same material are connected across a common potential difference. Conductor $A$ has twice the diameter and twice the length of conductor $B$. The power delivered to the two conductors $P_A$ and $P_B$ respectively is such that $P_A/P_B$ equals to

Two wires have resistances of $2 \ \Omega$ and $4 \ \Omega$ and are connected to the same voltage. The ratio of heat dissipated in the resistances is:

$A$ potential $V_0$ is applied across a uniform wire of resistance $R$. The power dissipation is $P_1$. The wire is then cut into two equal halves and a potential of $V_0$ is applied across the length of each half. The total power dissipation across two wires is $P_2$. The ratio $P_2: P_1$ is $\sqrt{x}: 1$. The value of $x$ is $.............$.
