A wire of length L and 3 identical cells of negligible internal resistance are connected in series. Due to the current, the temperature of the wire is raised by `DeltaT` in a time t. A number N of similar cells is now connected in series with a wire of the same material and cross-section but of length 2L. The temperature of the wire is raised by the same amount `DeltaT` in the same time t. the value of N isA. `4`B. `6`C. `8`D. `9`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`H=(V^(2))/Rt=mCDeltaTimplies((3E)^(2))/R t=RmCDeltaT`
`(3E)^(2)t=rhoL/A(dAL)CDeltaT`
`(3E)^(2)t=rhodL^(2)CDeltaT....(1)`
`(nE)^(2)t=rhodL(2L)^(2)CDeltaL...(2)`
From `(1)` and `(2), n=6`
