    Electricity (Test – I)

    Maximum Marks – 30 Time allowed – 1 hour

    General Instructions – This paper consists of three sections, namely – A, B and C. Section A consists of
    5 ques of 2 marks, Section B consists of 5 ques of 3 marks and Section C consists of 1 ques of 5 marks.

    Section A (2 marks each)

    Ques 1 The current flowing through a resistor connected in a circuit and the potential difference develop
    across its ends are as shown in the diagram by milliammeter and voltmeter reading respectively.

    (a) What are the least counts of these meters ?


    (b) What is the resistance of the resistor ?

    Ques 2 The values of current(I) flowing through a given resistor of resistance (R), for the corresponding
    values of potential difference (V) across the resistor are as given.
    V (Volts) 0.5 1 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 4.0 5.0
    I (Ampere) 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.8 1.0
    Plot a graph between current(I) and potential difference and determine the resistance of the resistor.

    Ques 3 How many 132 Ω resistors in parallel are required to carry 5 A on a 220 V line ?

    Ques 4 A student has two resistors- 2 Ω and 3 Ω. She has to put one of them in place of R2 as shown in the
    circuit. The current that she needs in the entire circuit is exactly 9A. Show by calculation which of the two
    resistors she should choose.

    Ques 5 Compute the heat generated while transferring 96,000 coulomb of charge in 120 minutes through
    a potential difference of 40 V.

    Section B (3 marks each)

    Ques 6 Show how would you join three resistors, each of resistance 9 Ω so that the equivalent resistance
    of the combination is (i) 13.5 Ω (ii) 6 Ω ?

    Ques 7 Show four different ways in which three resistors of ‘r' ohm each may be connected in a circuit. In
    which case is the equivalent resistance of the combination:

    (i) Maximum. (ii) Minimum


    Ques 8 In an experiment to study the dependence of current on potential difference across a resistor, a
    student obtained the graph as shown in the diagram.

    (i) What does the graph depict about the dependence of current on potential difference
    (ii) Find the current that flows through the resistor when the potential difference across it is 2.5 V.
    (iii) Write the method for determining resistance of the resistor from the graph.

    Ques 9 Consider the following circuit :

    What would be the readings of the ammeter and the voltmeter when the key is closed ? Give a reason to
    justify your answers.

    Ques 10 Calculate the total cost of running the following electrical devices in the month of September, if
    the rate of 1 unit of electricity is 6.00.

    (i) Electric heater of 1000 W for 5 hours daily.


    (ii) Electric refrigerator of 400 W for 10 hours daily.

    Section C (5 marks)

    battery as shown in the circuit. Calculate:

    (a) The total resistance of the circuit.


    (b) The current through the circuit.
    (c) The potential difference across the
    (i) electric lamp (ii) conductor
    (d) Power of the lamp.
