The variation of current $(I)$ and voltage $(V)$ is as shown in figure $A$. The variation of power $P$ with current $I$ is best shown by which of the following graphs?

Two electric bulbs marked $40\,W, 220\,V$ and $60\,W, 220\,V$ are connected in series across a $220\,V$ supply,resulting in an effective power $P_1$. When they are connected in parallel across the same $220\,V$ supply,the effective power is $P_2$. The ratio $\frac{P_1}{P_2}$ is:

$A$ cell of emf $E$ is connected to a resistance $R_{1}$ for time $t$ and the amount of heat generated in it is $H$. If the resistance $R_{1}$ is replaced by another resistance $R_{2}$ and is connected to the cell for the same time $t$, the amount of heat generated in $R_{2}$ is $4H$. Then the internal resistance $r$ of the cell is:

Two wires '$A$' and '$B$' of the same material have their lengths in the ratio $1 : 2$ and radii in the ratio $2 : 1$. The two wires are connected in parallel across a battery. The ratio of the heat produced in '$A$' to the heat produced in '$B$' for the same time is

If the cold junction is held at $0^{\circ} C$, the thermo emf $V$ of a thermocouple varies as $V = 10 \times 10^{-6} t - \frac{1}{40} \times 10^{-6} t^2$, where $t$ is the temperature of the hot junction in $^{\circ} C$. The neutral temperature and the maximum value of thermo emf are respectively:
