- A \(1: 2\)
- B \(5: 1\)
- C \(1: 40\)
- D \(20: 1\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(5: 1\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(R =\frac{\Delta V }{\Delta i }\) \(\frac{ R _{1}}{ R _{2}}=\frac{\Delta v _{1}}{\Delta v _{2}} \frac{\Delta i _{2}}{\Delta i _{1}}=\frac{0.1}{0.2} \times \frac{50}{5}=5\)
