In the circuit shown below, calculate:
$(a)$ total resistance in arm $CE$,
$(b)$ total current drawn from the battery, and
$(c)$ current in each arm, i.e., $AB$ and $CE$ of the circuit.

$(a)$ What is meant by saying that the potential difference between two points is $1$ volt?
$(b)$ Why does the connecting cord of an electrical heater not glow while the heating element does?
$(c)$ Electrical resistivities of some substances at $20^{\circ}C$ are given below:

Silver	$1.60 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega m$
Copper	$1.62 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega m$
Tungsten	$5.2 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega m$
Iron	$10.0 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega m$
Mercury	$94.0 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega m$
Nichrome	$100 \times 10^{-6} \, \Omega m$

Answer the following questions in relation to them:
$(i)$ Among silver and copper, which one is a better conductor? Why?
$(ii)$ Which material would you advise to use in electrical heating devices? Why?

In an electrical circuit,three incandescent bulbs $A, B$ and $C$ of rating $40 \, W, 60 \, W$ and $100 \, W$ respectively are connected in parallel to an electric source. Which of the following is likely to happen regarding their brightness?

Which physical quantity has a unit of $kWh$?

Read the following statements carefully and state whether each statement is true or false:
$(i)$ The quantity of charge flowing past a point multiplied by time is current.
$(ii)$ The flow of charge through a conducting wire connected to a cell is the result of a chemical reaction inside the cell.
$(iii)$ The resistivity of all pure metals increases with an increase in temperature.
$(iv)$ Ohm's law is a relation between the power used in a circuit to the current and the potential difference.
$(v)$ $A$ series circuit has only one conducting path for the electrons that move through it; a parallel circuit has multiple conducting paths.
$(vi)$ $A$ conducting wire offers resistance to the flow of electrons because electrons repel each other in the wire.
