\(18\) cells each having the same EMF are connected in series with some cells being wrongly connected. This arrangement of battery is connected in series with an ammeter and two identical cells which are in series. Current of \(3~\text{A}\) is drawn when cells and battery support each other and current of \(2~\text{A}\) is drawn when cells and battery oppose each other. The number of wrongly connected cells is:
1. \(1\) 2. \(2\)
3. \(3\) 4. \(4\)

All the cells, shown in the figure below, are of \(2~\text V,\) and all the resistances are \(1~\Omega.\) When a potential difference \(V\) is applied between \(A\) and \(B,\) the current through the circuit doubles compared to the situation when the potential difference is made zero. Then;
1. \(V=2\) volts, positive at \(A.\)
2. \(V=2\) volts, negative at \(A.\)
3. \(V=6\) volts, positive at \(A.\)
4. \(V=6\) volts, negative at \(A.\)

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R): 
 
Assertion (A): Resistance of a  conducting metallic wire depends on the voltage applied across it and current passing through it.
Reason (R): Ohm's law is also valid for semiconductors.

In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true but (R) is false.
4. Both (A) and (R) are false.

Current density is the current crossing per unit area. Consider a cylindrical wire of uniform cross-section \(A,\) carrying a current \(I.\) Imagine a cross-section formed by a "\(30^\circ\)-cut" as shown (the wire is not really cut). The current density perpendicular to this cross-section is:
                   
 
1. \(\dfrac{I}{A}\) 2. \(\dfrac{I}{A}~\cos30^\circ\)
3. \(\dfrac{2I}{A}\) 4. \(\dfrac{I}{A}~\sin30^\circ\)
