NEET 2019 · PhysicsPower splitPrevious Year Question
Six similar bulbs are connected as shown with a DC source of emf E and zero internal resistance. The ratio of power consumed when (i) all glow to (ii) when two of section A and one of section B glow, is:
Answer: (B) 9 : 4. \textbf{Answer:} (2) 9 : 4 \textbf{Solution:} Sections A and B (each 3 bulbs in parallel) are in series.

- A.4 : 9
- B.9 : 4✓
- C.1 : 2
- D.2 : 1
Correct Answer
(B) 9 : 4
Solution & Explanation
\textbf{Answer:} (2) 9 : 4 \textbf{Solution:} Sections A and B (each 3 bulbs in parallel) are in series. (i) All on: R = R/3 + R/3 = 2R/3 P_i = 3E/(2R). (ii) 2 in A (R/2) + 1 in B (R) = 3R/2 P_ii = 2E/(3R). Ratio = (3/2)/(2/3) = 9 : 4.

PhysTwo heaters A and B rated 1 kW and 2 kW are connected first in series and then in parallel to a fixed source. The ratio of power outputs (series : parallel) is:PhysTwo resistors 100 and 200 are connected in parallel. The ratio of thermal energy developed in 100 to that in 200 in a given time is:PhysThree resistors r1, r2, r3 are connected as shown. The ratio i3/i1 of currents in terms of the resistances is:PhysAn electric dipole with dipole moment 5 × 10⁻⁶ C·m is aligned with the direction of a uniform electric field of magnitude 4 × 10⁵ N/C. The dipole is then rotated through an angle of 60° with respect to the electric field. The change in the potential energy of the dipole is:PhysTwo identical charged conducting spheres A and B have their centres separated by a certain distance. Charge on each sphere is q and the force of repulsion between them is F. A third identical uncharged conducting sphere is brought in contact with sphere A first and then with B and finally removed from both. New force of repulsion between spheres A and B (radii negligible vs separation, treated as point charges) is best given as:PhysThe plates of a parallel plate capacitor are separated by d. Two slabs of different dielectric constant K1 and K2 with thickness 3d/8 and d/2 respectively are inserted in the capacitor. Due to this, the capacitance becomes two times larger than when there is nothing between the plates. If K1/K2 = 1.25, the value of K1 is:PhysA sphere of radius R is carved out of a uniform solid sphere of radius 2R (internally tangent, so its centre is at distance R from the big centre). The ratio of the moment of inertia of the small sphere to that of the remaining part, both about the Y-axis through the big sphere's centre, is:PhysThe Sun rotates once in 27 days. If it expanded to twice its present radius (uniform-density sphere, no external influence), its new period would be about:
