Two wires having resistance R and 2 R are connected in parallel, the ratio of heat generated in 2 R and R isA. ` 1 :2`B. `2 : 1`C. `1 :4`D. `4 : 1`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
In parallel circuit potential across each resistor is same.
`therefore " " P_(1) = " power across " R=(V^(2))/(R )`
`P_(2) = " power across " 2R =(V^(2))/(2R)`
`(P_(1))/(P_(2))=2 :1`
