BITSAT Physics Question (2023) — Solution

Question

Ratio of thermal energy released in two resistor R and 3 R connected in parallel in an electric circuit is :

Options

  1. A. 3 : 1
  2. B. 1 : 1
  3. C. 1 : 3
  4. D. 1 : 27

Answer

A. 3 : 1

Step-by-step solution

Thermal energy is given by H = P t = V ^2 R t Here, voltage V is same. H _1 H _2 = V ^2 t R V ^2 t 3 R =3: 1
