The product of resistivity and conductivity of a cylindrical conductor depends on
1. temperature
2. material
3. area of cross-section
4. none of these.
As the temperature of a metallic resistor is increased, the product of its resistivity and conductivity:
1. | increases |
2. | decreases |
3. | remains constant |
4. | may increase or decrease |
In an electric circuit containing a battery, the charge (assumed positive) inside the battery:
1. | always goes from the positive terminal to the negative terminal. |
2. | may go from the positive terminal to the negative terminal. |
3. | always goes from the negative terminal to the positive terminal. |
4. | does not move. |
A resistor of resistance \(R\) is connected to an ideal battery. If the value of \(R\) is decreased, the power dissipated in the resistor will:
1. | increase | 2. | decrease |
3. | remains unchanged | 4. | can't be determined |
A current passes through a resistor. Let K1 and K2 represent the average kinetic energy of the conduction electrons and the metal ions respectively.
1. K1 < K2
2. K1 = K2
3. K1 > K2
4. Any of these three may occur
