Worksheet of Electricity

1. The document is a physics worksheet on electricity for Class 10 that contains 30 questions about electric circuits and components. 2. The questions cover topics like the function of fuses, Ohm's law, how resistance and resistivity are affected by changes in wire length and temperature, different ways of connecting resistors, and calculating equivalent resistance in series and parallel circuits. 3. The worksheet aims to test students' understanding of key concepts in electricity like current, voltage, resistance, and how these quantities are related based on the material learned in their class.

PHYSICS WORKSHEET
CLASS: X
CHAPTER: ELECTRICITY
1. State the function of electric fuse. What is meant by the statement that the rating of a fuse in a circuit is
5 A? Why should a fuse with defined rating for an electric circuit not be replaced by one with a larger
rating?
2. Does ohm’s law hold good under all conditions? Comment.
3. A wire of resistivity ‘ρ’ is pulled to double its length. What will be its new resistivity?
4. A wire is cut into three equal parts and then connected in parallel. How does its resistance and resistivity
get affected?
5. Two identical resistors are first connected in series and then in parallel. Find the ratio of equivalent
resistance in two cases.
6. Two resistors of resistances 30 Ω and 60 Ω are connected in parallel in an electric circuit. How does the
current passing through the two resistors compare?
7. Draw a V-I graph for a conductor at two different temperatures. What conclusion do you draw from
your graph for the variation of resistance of the conductor with temperature?
8. Name a substance of which the specific resistance remains almost unchanged by the increase in
temperatures.
9. How does (a) resistance, and (b) specific resistance of a wire depend on its (i) length and (ii) radius.
10. Explain why the p.d. across the terminals a cell more in an open circuit and reduced in a closed circuit.
11. The V-I graph for a series combination and for parallel combination of two resistors is shown in fig.
Which of the two, A or B, represents parallel combination? Give reason for your answer.
12. Define the term kilowatt-hour and state its value in SI unit.
13. How do kilowatt and kilowatt hour differ?
14. Two lamps, one rated 220V, 50 W and the other rated 220V, 100 W, are
connected in series with mains of voltage 220 V. Explain why does the 50
W lamp consume more power.
15. What happens to the resistance of a circuit if the current through it is
doubled?
16. Why is nichrome used as a heating element?
17. What is the difference between resistor and resistance?
18. Why are constantan and manganin used for making standard resistances?
19. A wire of 3 ohm resistance and 10 cm length is stretched to 30 cm length. Assuming that it has uniform
cross-section, what will be its new resistance?
20. A bulb cannot be used in place of a resistor to verify Ohm’s law. Justify this statement with reason.
21. When a particle of charge 10 µC is brought from infinity to a point in the electric field, 10 mJ work is
done by the external forces. What is the potential at that point?
22. You are given several identical resistors each having resistance of 10 Ω and maximum current of 1 A is
allowed to pass through each resistor. It is required to make a suitable combination of these resistances
of 5 Ω which can carry a current of 4 A. Find the number of such resistances that will be required.
23. Two identical resistors each of resistance 12 Ω are connected (i) in series (ii) in parallel, in turn to a
battery of 6 V. Calculate the ratio of power consumed in the combination of resistors in the two cases.

24. Consider the following circuit diagram. If R1 = R2 = R3 = R4 = R5


= 3Ω, find the equivalent resistance of the circuit.
25. Find the equivalent resistance across the two ends A and B of the
following circuits.

(i) Key K1 is open and K2 is closed
(ii) Both the keys are closed
(iii) K1 is closed and K2 is open.

30. Find the equivalent resistance across the two ends A and B of this
circuit.
