Each resistor shown in figure has a resistance of \( 20 \, \Omega \) and the battery has an emf of 12 V. The current supplied by the battery is

- A 0.3 A
- B 0.6 A
- C 1.2 A
- D 2.4 A
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 0.6 A
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\frac{R_{f e}}{R_{a b}}=\frac{R_{e d}}{R_{b c}} \Longrightarrow \frac{20}{20}=\frac{20}{20}\) \(R_{e q}=\frac{40 \times 40}{40+40}=20 \Omega\) \(I=\frac{12 V}{20 \Omega}=0.6 A\)

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:CUET 2025 Medium - Two parallel long wires carry currents, \( i_1 \) and \( i_2 \) with \( i_1 > i_2 \). When the currents are in same direction, the magnetic field at a point midway between them is \( 10 \mu \text{T} \). If the direction of \( i_2 \) is reversed, the field becomes \( 30 \mu \text{T} \). The ratio of \( i_1/i_2 \) is:CUET 2023 Easy

Haloalkanes undergo nucelophilic substitution reactions owing to the polarity of CX bond. The nucleophile reacts with the haloalkane on the carbon possessing a partial positive charge holding the halogen atom. The halogen atom \(X\) is replaced by a nucleophile. Depending on the kinetics and mode of bond breaking, the mechanism can be either SN1 or SN2 reaction. The rate of SN1 reaction is governed by the stability of carbocation and in SN2 reaction, the rate of reaction is governed by steric factor. Chirality is the main factor in both SN1and SN2. In SN1 reaction, the chirality of alkyl halide is accompanied by racemization of the product, while in SN2 reaction, the product is characterized by inversion of configuration. The structure of alkyl halide and the nature of the solvent also governs the mechanism of the substitution.
