c) 3.6×10⁶ j
d) 3.6×10⁸ j
● a. Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of the assertion.
● b. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
● c. A is true R is false.
● d. A is false but R is true
● e. Both A and R are false
12) Assertion: When the length of a wire is doubled, then its resistance also gets
doubled.
Reason: The resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length.
13) Assertion: If graph is plotted between the potential difference and the current
flowing, the graph is a straight line passing through the origin.
Reason: The current is directly proportional to the potential difference.
14) Assertion: The value of the current in the ammeter is the same, independent of its
position in the electric circuit.
Reason: In the series combination of resistors the current is the same in every part
of the circuit or the same current through each resistor.
15) Assertion: when the resistance are connected between the same two points, they
are said to be connected in parallel.
Reason: In case the resistance is to be decreased, then the individual resistances
are connected in parallel.
16) Mention the commercial unit of electric energy.
