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. 4B. 5C. 8D. 6 |

Answer» Correct Answer - D d. `V^2/R t = ms DeltaT` For first case `: (3E)^2/(rhoL//A) t = ms DeltaT` For second case: `(NE)^2/(rho2L//A) t = 2msDeltaT`. Dividing, we get N = 6. |
