Q.The resistance of a resistor is reduced to half of its initial value. Indoing so, if other parameters of the circuit remain unchanged, theheating effects in the resistor will become?

(A)

two times.

(B)

half.

(C)

one-fourth.

(D)

four times.​


Ans:- Given Resistance is reduced to half, so resistance = R/2

Also given that, other parameters of circuits remain unchanged,

For constant Current, heating effect of resister will become - 


• This means that Heat is directly proportional to resistance, so when resistance is halfed, then heat effect will also become halfed

For the constant Voltage, heating effect of resistor become - 

• This means that Heat is indirectly proportional to resistance, so when resistance is halfed, then heat effect will also become doubled

So, we found that there are 2 cases, current being constant and voltage being constant. 

Note - Both cases have different answer!

iii. Justify the poet’s allusion to Rapunzel in ‘Amanda’.

In the poem 'Amanda', the poet Robin Klein speaks about Rupanzel, a fairy who lived in a tall tower. She has bright hairs. She do not care for anything. Her life was tranquil and peaceful.  As such, Amanda also imagines a life like Rupanzel, living in a huge tower. She feel that, in the tall tower, she can do everything without being nagged from her mother. She also says that she will never let her hair down like Rupanzel. This means that, she doesn't allow anyone to come in the tower and wants to live alone and free.

ii. The use of symbolism in the poem ‘Fire and Ice’ conveys the poet’s message effectively. Expand with reference to the poem.

Fire Symbolises desire and Ice Symbolises hatred. Fire or Desire is a kind of pure love or want that focuses people on getting  and acquiring. Our society is full of people who spend their life working to get a bigger TV , a new stylish car, or more bigger house. This kind of desire can lead us to destruction in form of bankruptcy or even broken relationship. Robert Frost's prom speaks on this problem of greed corrupting people and the society as a whole. The Power of hate produces limited destruction . For instance , hate is the the main cause of racism and war. it can remain in person mind for lifetime. Moreover, it consumes the hater more than what the person hated. It thus ruins life of People

Assertion (A): Different people have different development goals. Reason ®: People want freedom, equality, security and respect

  Options: a. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A. b. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A. c. A is true but R is false. d. A is false but R is true. Correct Answer : a. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
