Resistance of a fuse wire is ……..and its melting points is ……….

Assertion: Current is passed through a metallic wire, heating it red. When cold water is poured on half of its portion, then rest of the half portion become more hot. Reason: Resistance decreases due to decrease in tem perature and so current through wire increases.

A ring is made of a wire having a resistance R_(0) = 12 Omega . Find the point A and B , as shown in the figure, at which a current carrying conductor should be connected so that the resistance R of the subcircuit between these points is equal to (8)/(3) Omega

Assertion: meterbridge wire is made up of manganin Reason: The temperature coefficient of resistance is very small for manganin

Assertion: A voltmeter must be connected in parallel in a circuit and it should have a high resistance. Reason: The voltmeter in the circuit must not affect the P.D. it is to measure.

Assertion: Potentiometer measures correct value of emf of a cell. Reason: No current flows through cell at null point of potentiometer.

An experimental setup of verification of photoelectric effect is shown in the diagram. The voltage across the electrode is measured with the help of an ideal voltmetar, and which can be varied by moving jockey 'J' on the potentiometer wire. The battery used in potentiometer circuit is of 20 V and its internal resistance is 2omega . The resistance of 100 cm long potentiometer wire is 8 omega . The photo current is measured with the help of an ideal ammeter. Two plates of potassium oxide of area 50 cm^(2) at separation 0.5 mm are used in the vacuum tube. Photo current in the circuit is very small so we can treat potentiometer circuit an indepdent circuit.
