Answer: Mercury.

Question. Electric current flows through a metallic conductor from its one end A to other end B. Which end of the conductor is at higher potential ?
Why ?
Answer: Since, current flows from a region higher potential to a lower potential. So, it flows from A to B where A is the end with higher potential.

Question. Which material is the best conductor of electricity ?

Answer: Silver.

Short Answer Type Questions :

Question. Though same current flows through the electric line wires an the bulb filament, yet only the filament glows. Give the reason behind it?
Answer: The resistance of electric line wire is very very less than that of the filament of the bulb. Therefore, the current through the high resistance filament
produces more heat which makes it glow.

Question. Which is analogous to temperature: a current or electric potential?

Answer: Electric potential is analogous to temperature. As heat flows from higher temperature to lower temperature, so charges flow from higher potential to
lower potential.

Question. Ammeter burns out when connected in parallel. Give reasons.

Answer: Ammeter consists of a wire of low resistance when connected in parallel; a large amount of current passes through it hence gets burnt i.e. short
circuited.

Question. For domestic purpose, we connect the electrical devices in parallel instead of connecting them in series. What are the advantages of
connecting electrical devices in parallel?
Answer: By connecting the electrical devices in parallel:- 1 each device gets the full or same voltage 2. each device gets proper current depending on its
resistance. 3. if one device is switched off/on , other electrical appliances remain unaffected That is why for domestic purpose we connect the electrical devices
in parallel instead of connecting them in series.

Question. The heating elements of electric toasters and electric iron are made of an alloy rather than a pure metal. Why?
Answer: The heating elements of electric toasters and electric irons are made of an alloy rather than a pure metal due to the following reasons:- 1. Alloys don’t
oxidize readily at higher temperature. 2. Alloys have higher resistivity than their constituent elements

Question. An ammeter is always connected in series across a circuit element. What happens when it is connected in parallel with the circuit
element?
Answer: The ammeter is alow resistance device. When it is connected in parallel, the resistance of the circuit reduces considerably. Therefore, a large current
flows through the circuit, by virtue of which it may be damaged.

:

Plot a graph between V and I and calculate the resistance of that resistor.
Answer: The graph between V and I is given below :
Let us consider two points A and B on the slope.
Draw two lines, one from point B along X-axis and another from point A along Y-axis, which meet at point C.

https://www.studiestoday.com/hots-question-physics-cbse-class-10-biology-hots-electricity-223492.html 4/27
4/22/24, 3:27 PM CBSE Class 10 Physics HOTs Electricity
The slope of the graph will give the value of resistance, thus
Slope = R = AC/BC
Now, BC = 3 – 1 = 2 A
AC = 10.2 – 3.4 = 6.8 V
Slope = 6.8/2 = 3.4 W

Thus, resistance (R) = 3.4 Ω.

Question. An electric lamp of resistance 20 W and a conductor of resistance 4 W are connected to a 6 V battery as shown in the circuit. Calculate :
(a) the total resistance of the circuit,
(b) the current through the circuit,
(c) the potential difference across the (i) electric lamp and (ii) conductor,
(d) power of the lamp.
Answer: (a) Given, R1 = 20 W, R2 = 4 W
Since, in Series R = R1 + R2
∴ Total resistance of circuit : R = 20 + 4
= 24 W
(b) Current through circuit V = 6 V, R = 24 W
According to Ohm’s law V = IR
So, I = V/R
I = 6/24
= 1/4 = 0·25 ampere
(c) (i) Potential difference across electric lamp :
I = 1/4 A, R1 = 20 W
V1 = IR1
V1 = 1/4 × 20
=5V
(ii) Potential difference across conductor
V2 = IR2
= 1/4 × 4
V2 = 1 V
(d) Power of lamp : P = I2R
= (1/4)2 x 20
= 1/4 x 1/4 x 20
= 5/4 W
or P = 1.25 W.

Question. The current flowing through a resistor connected in a circuit and the potential difference developed across its ends are as shown in the
diagram by milliammeter and voltmeter readings respectively:

(a) What are the least counts of these meters?

(b) What is the resistance of the resistor?
Answer: (a) 10 mA and 0.1 V
(b) V = 2.4 volt, I = 250 mA = 0.25 A
From Ohm’s law. R = V/I = 2.4/0.25 = 9.6 W

Question. Show how would you join resistors each resistance 9 W so that the equivalent resistance of the combination of combination is (a) 13.5 W
(b) W ?
Answer: (a) To get an equivalent resistance of 13.5 W, the resistance
should be connected as sown in the figure given below:
So, 1/Rp = 1/R1 + 1/R2
= 1/9 + 1/9
= 1 + 1/9 = 2/9
1/Rp = 2/9
RP = 9/2 = 4.5 W
Now, RS = R3 + 4.5 W
= 9 W + 4.5 W
= 13.5 W

4/22/24, 3:27 PM CBSE Class 10 Physics HOTs Electricity
(b) To get equivalent resistance of 6 W, the resistance should be connected as shown in the given below
RS = R1 + R2
=9+9
= 18 W
Now both the resistance are in parallel with each other so,
Rp = 1/18 + 1/9
= 1 + 2/18 = 3/18
= 1/6 w
So, RP = 6 W

Question. Two bulbs rated (60 W – 220 V) and (60 W – 110 V) respectively.
Calculate the ratio of their resistance.
Answer: First bulb:
Power rating P1 = 60 W
Voltage rating V1 = 220 V
∴ Resistance, R1 = V12/P1
= 220 X 220 /60 Ω
Second bulb:
Power rating P2 = 60 W
Voltage rating, V2 = 110 V
∴ Resistance, R2 = V22/P2
= 110 x 110/60 Ω
220 x 220 / 60
R1/R2 = 110 x 110 /60
= 220 x 220 /60 x 60/110 x 110
= 4/1
R1 : R2 = 4 : 1

Question. An electric kettle is rated at (100 W – 220 V).

(a) What is the resistance of its element when in use?
(b) What is the safe value of current that can pass through its element?
Answer: Here, Power rating, P = 1000 W
Voltage rating, V = 220 V
(a) Using the relation P = V2/R
Resistance of element when in use,
R = V2/P = 220 x 220/1000
= 48.4 W
(b) Using the relation P = VI
Safe current, I = P/V = 1000/20
= 4.55 A

Question. Two lamps, one rated 100 W at 220 V, and the other 60 W at 220 V, are connected in parallel to electric mains supply. What current is
drawn from the line if the supply voltage is 220 V?
Answer: Given: Power of one lamp, P1 = 100 W
Power of second lamp, P2 = 60 W
Since, both the lamps are connected in parallel, thus, potential difference will be equal.
Thus, Potential difference = 220 V
We know, that Power (P) = VI
Thus, the total current through the circuit
I = P1/V + P2/V
I = 100/200 + 60/200
= 100 + 60/220
= 160/220 = 0.727 A

Question. If a student wants to connect four cells of 1.5 V each to form a battery of voltage 6 V, then how would he draw the symbol of the battery?

Answer: (a) The resistor have to combined as shown in the diagram
The equivalent resistance of 1 W and 100 W connected in parallel is:
1/R1 = 1/1 + 1/100
= 100 + 1/100
= 101/100
or R1 = 100/101 W
= 0.99 W
Now, 10 W and R1 are in series,
Therefore, equivalent resistance R is

https://www.studiestoday.com/hots-question-physics-cbse-class-10-biology-hots-electricity-223492.html 6/27
4/22/24, 3:27 PM CBSE Class 10 Physics HOTs Electricity
R = (10 + 0.99) W
= 10.99 W
The above value of resistance is greater than 10 W but less than 11 W.

Question. What is (a) the highest, (b) the lowest resistance that can be secured by combination other resistors of 1 W, 10 W, 100 W and 1000 W?
Answer: (a) To obtain the highest resistance, the resistors must be connected in series.
∴ Highest resistance, RS = (1 + 10 + 100 + 1000) W
= 1111 W
(b) To obtain the lowest resistance, the resistors must be connected in parallel. the lowest resistance is given by
1/Rp = 1/1 + 1/10 + 1/100 + 1/1000
= 1000+ 100 + 10 + 1/1000
= 1111/1000
∴ Lowest resistance RP = 1000/1111 W
= 0.9 W.

temperature on their resistance is negligible.

Question. Why is a series arrangement not used for domestic circuits?

Answer: Series arrangement is not used for domestic circuits for the following reasons :
1. The voltage of the source gets divided in all the appliances connected in series, in the ratio of their resistances, so each appliance does not operate at its
rated voltage.
2. The resistance of the circuit increases and it reduces the current in the circuit, so each appliance gets less power.
3. If any one appliance in series arrangement is switched off (or gets spoilt), no other appliance connected with it in series will then operate.

Question. Why are the heating elements of electric toasters and electric irons made of an alloy rather than a pure metal?
Answer: The resistivity of an alloy is generally higher than that of its constituent metals. Alloys do not oxidise (burn) readily at higher temperatures. Therefore,
conductors of electric heating devices, such as toasters and electric irons, are made up of an alloy rather than pure metal.

Question. Why should a connection wire be thick?

Answer: Resistance of a wire is inversely proportional to its area of cross-section (or thickness). Hence, a connection wire should be thick to reduce its
resistance.

Creating Based Questions :

Question. Brisilia designed a prototype in which she used a very sensitive electrical device. But she does not know how to protect the sensitive
electrical device from high current. Suggest her with one idea to protect the sensitive device from high current.
Answer: The suggestion to protect the sensitive electrical device from high current is by using a parallel low resistor known as shunt resistor. The resistance
value of shunt resistor is very low. It is made up of the material having low temperature coefficient of resistance. It measures the electric current, alternating
current or direct current.

Question. Rita designed a circuit in which resistors are connected in series. Yet she is not satisfied with the series resistors because if there is a fault

Question. How will you infer with the help of an experiment that the same current flows through every part of a circuit containing three resistors in
series connected to a battery ?
Answer: Let three resistors R1, R2 and R3 are connected in series which are also connected with a battery, an ammeter and a key as shown in figure. When key
is closed, the current starts flowing through the circuit. Take the reading of ammeter. Now change the position of ammeter to anywhere in between the
resistors and take its reading. We will observe that in both the cases reading of ammeter will be same showing same current flows through every part of the

Question. Answer the following question:

(a) Write Joule’s law of heating.
(b) Two lamps, one rated 100 W; 220 V, and the other 60 W; 220 V, are connected in parallel to electric mains supply. Find the current drawn by two
bulbs from the line, if the supply voltage is 200 V.
Answer: (a) According to Joule’s law of heating, the heat produced in a
wire is directly proportional to :
(i) square of current (I2),
(ii) resistance of wire (R),
(iii) time (t) for which current is passed.
Thus, the heat produced in the wire by current in time ‘t’ is
H ∝ I2Rt
or H = KI2 Rt
But K = 1, H = I2Rt
(b) We know that, P = VI
⇒ I = P/V First lamp : P1 = 100 W, V = 220 volt
I1 = P1/V = 100/220 = 0·45 A
Second lamp : P2 = 60 W, V = 220 volt
I2 = P2/V = 60/220 = 0·27 A
So, Total current = I1 + I2
= 0·45 + 0·27
= 0·72 A

where the symbols have usual meaning. Calculate the equivalent resistance of the combination of three resistor of 6 W, 9 W and 18 W joined in
parallel.
Answer: Same current (I) flows through different resistance, when these are joined in series, as shown in the figure.

Let R be the combined resistance, then

V = IR
V1 = IR1, V2 = IR2, V3 = IR3
IR = IR1 + IR2 + IR3
∴ IR = IR1 + IR2 + IR3
⇒ IR = I(R1 + R2 + R3)
∴ R = R1 + R2 + R3
Now, R1 = 6 W, R2 = 9 W,
R3 = 18 W
In parallel combination
1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3
⇒ 1/R = 1/6 + 1/9 + 1/18 = 3 + 2 + 1/18
= 6/18 = 1/3
⇒ 1/R = 1/3
⇒ R = 3 W.

Question. Shyam designed a burglar alarm circuit in which the resistors are connected in series. The circuit breaks and the current did not flow
through the circuit. What is the alternate method he should opt to prevent the circuit break when the resistors are connected in series ?
Answer: There is only a single path which connects from the electric source to the output devices. The electrical appliance damage can be prevented by
connecting the fuse in series with the mains as well as the electrical appliance. To maintain the current level efficiently series of resistors can be used.

Question. Let the resistance of an electrical component remains constant while the potential difference across the two ends of the component
decreases to half of its former value. What change will occur in the current through it?
Answer: (a) Since Resistance (R) = Potential difference(V) / Electric (I)
Therefore, if potential between to ends of the component will be halved, and resistance remains constant then electric current would also be halved.

Q.22. Draw a schematic diagram of a circuit containing the following electrical components:(a) a resistance (b) a voltmeter (c) an electric bulb (d) a cell (e) an
ammeter and (f) plug key

1. Positive and negative charges: The charge acquired by a glass rod when rubbed with silk is called positive charge and the charge acquired by an ebonite
rod when rubbed with wool is called negative charge.

2. Coulomb: It is the S.I. unit of charge. One coulomb is defined as that amount of charge which repels an equal and similar charge with a force of 9 x 109 N
when placed in vacuum at a distance of 1 meter from it. Charge on an electron = -1.6 x 10-19 coulomb.

3. Static and current electricities: Static electricity deals with the electric charges at rest while the current electricity deals with the electric charges in motion.

4. Conductor: A substance which allows passage of electric charges through it easily is called a 'conductor' . A conductor offers very low resistance to the flow
of current. For example copper, silver, aluminium etc.

5. Insulator: A substance that has infinitely high resistance does not allow electric current to flow through it. It is called an 'insulator‘. For example rubber,
glass, plastic, ebonite etc.

6. Electric current: The flow of electric charges across a cross-section of a conductor constitutes an electric current. It is defined as the rate of flow of the
electric charge through any section of a conductor.

Electric current = Charge/Time or I = Q/t Electric current is a scalar quantity.

7. Ampere: It is the S.I. unit of current. If one coulomb of charge flows through any section of a conductor in one second, then current through it is said to be
one ampere. 1 ampere = 1 coulomb/1 second or 1 A = 1C/1s = 1Cs-1 1 milliampere = 1 mA =10-3 A 1 microampere = 1μA = 10-6 A

8. Electric circuit: The closed path along which electric current flows is called an 'electric circuit‘.

9. Conventional current: Conventionally, the direction of motion of positive charges is taken as the direction of current. The direction of conventional current
is opposite to that of the negatively charged electrons.

10. Electric field: It is the region around a charged body within which its influence can be experienced.

11. Electrostatic potential: Electrostatic potential at any point in an electric field is defined as the amount of work done in bringing a unit positive charge from
infinity to that point. Its unit is volt. Positive charges move from higher to lower potential regions. Electrons, being negatively charged, move from lower to
higher potential regions.

12. Potential difference between two points: The Potential difference between two points in an electric field is the amount of work done in bringing a unit
positive charge from one to another. Potential difference = Work done/Charge or V = W/Q

13. One volt potential difference: The Potential difference between two points in an electric field is said to one volt if one joule of work has to be done in
bringing a positive charge of one coulomb from one point to another. 1 volt = 1 joule/1 coulomb or 1 V = 1J/1C

14. Galvanometer: It is device to detect current in an electric circuit.

15. Ammeter: It is device to measure current in a circuit. It is always connected in series in a circuit.

16. Voltmeter: It is a device to measure potential difference. It is always connected in parallel to the component across which the potential difference is to be
measured.

17. Ohm’s law: This law states that the current passing through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference cross its ends, provided the
physical conditions like temperature, density etc. remains unchanged.

V α I or V = RI

The proportionality constant R is called resistance of conductor.

18. Resistance: It is a property of a conductor by virtue of which it opposes the flow of current through it. It is equal to the ratio of the potential difference
applied across its ends and the current flowing through it. Resistance = Potential difference/Current or R = V/I

19. Ohm: It is the S.I. unit of resistance. A conductor has a resistance of one ohm if a current of one ampere flows through it on applying a potential difference
of one volt across its ends. 1 ohm = 1 volt/1 ampere or 1Ω = 1V/1A

20. Factors on which resistance of a conductor depends: The resistance R of a conductor depends

i) Directly on its length L i.e. R α L.

ii) inversely on its area of cross-section A i.e. R α 1/A

iii) on the nature of material of the conductor on. On combining the above factors, we get R α L/A

R = ρ * L/A The proportionality constant ρ is called resistivity of conductor.

21. Resistivity: It is defined as the resistance offered by a cube of a material of side 1 m when current flows perpendicular to its opposite faces. Its S.I. unit is
ohm-meter (Ωm).

Resistivity, ρ = RA/L

22. Equivalent resistance: If a single resistance can replace the combination of resistances in such a manner that the current in the circuit remains
unchanged, then that single resistance is called the equivalent resistance.

23. Laws of resistances in series: i) Current through each resistance is same.

ii) Total voltage across the combination = Sum of the voltage drops.

V= V1 + V2 + V3

iii) Voltage drops across any resistor is proportional to its resistance.

V1 = IR1, V2 = IR2, V3 = IR3

iv) Equivalent resistance = Sum of the individual resistances.

4/22/24, 3:27 PM CBSE Class 10 Physics HOTs Electricity
Rs = R1 + R2 + R3

v) Equivalent resistance is larger than the largest individual resistance.

Laws of resistances in parallel:

i) Voltage across each resistance is same and is equal to the applied voltage.

ii) Total current = Sum of the currents through the individual resistances.

I = I 1 + I2 + I3

iii) Currents through various resistances are inversely proportional to the individual

resistances. I1 = V/R1, I2 = V/R2, I3 = V/R3

iv) Reciprocal of equivalent resistance = Sum of reciprocals of individual resistances.

1/Rp = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

v) Equivalent resistance is less than the smallest individual resistance.

24. Joule’s law of heating: It states that the heat produced in a conductor is directly proportional to

(i) the square of the current I through it

(ii) proportional to its resistances R and

(iii) the time t for which current is passed. Mathematically, it can be expressed as

H = I2Rt joule = I2Rt/4.18 cal

or

H = VIt joule = VIt/4.18cal

25. Electric energy: It is the total work done in maintaining an electric current in an electric circuit for given time. Electric energy, W = VIt = I2Rt joule

26. Electrical power: Electrical power is the rate at which electric energy is consumed by an appliance.

P = W/t = VI = I2R = V2/R

27. Watt: It is the S.I. unit of power. The power of an appliance is 1 watt if one ampere of current flows through it on applying a potential differences of 1 volt
across its ends.

1 watt = 1 joule/1 second =1 volt x 1 ampere or 1 W = 1 Js-1 = 1 VA

1 kilowatt = 1000 W 1Mega watt= 106 watt 1Gigawatt=109 watt

28. Kilowatt hour: It is the commercial unit of electrical energy. One kilowatt hour is the electric energy consumed by an appliance of 1000 watts when used
for one hour.

1 kilowatt hour (kWh) = 3.6 x 106 J

SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES

1. To verify ohm‘s law.

2. To observe the flow of current is different for different components.

3. To study the factors on which the resistance of conducting wire depends.

4. Resistors in series and resistors in parallel

HOTS QUESTIONS (SOLVED / UNSOLVED)

Question. Why is the tungsten metal more coiled in the bulb and not installed in straight parallel wire form?
Answer: The coiled wire of tungsten increases the surface area of the wire in very less space so as to emit more light and helps in glowing with more intensity.

Question. Why are fairy decorative lights always connected in parallel?

Answer: When the fairy lights are connected in series the resistance offered will be greater and brightness of the bulbs will be affected. But in parallel
connection all the bulbs will glow with same intensity and if any more bulbs gets fused the other bulbs will continue to glow.

Question. What will happen when -
a) Voltmeter is connected in series?
b) Ammeter is connected in parallel?
Answer: a) Negligible current will pass through the circuit because the voltmeter has a very high resistance.
b) Ammeter will get damaged due to flow of large amount of current through it, because it has low resistance.
