The power consumed when \(10 \mathrm{~V}\) voltage is applied to a series combination of 10 resistors of each \(1 \Omega\) is \(\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{s}}\) and the power consumed when the same \(10 \mathrm{~V}\) is applied to the parallel combination of these 10 resistors is \(P_p\). The value of \(\frac{\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{s}}}{\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{p}}}\) is

  1. A \(10\)
  2. B \(100\)
  3. C \(0.1\)
  4. D \(0.01\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(0.01\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have \(\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{S}}=\frac{\mathrm{V}^2}{\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{S}}}=\frac{10^2}{10}=10\) and, \(\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{P}}=\frac{\mathrm{V}^2}{\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{P}}}=\frac{10^2}{\frac{1}{10}}=1000\) So,…
