Determine the following in the electric circuit given below.

As per the given question, the following can be determined:

Circuit

Effective resistance of two 8 Ω resistors in combination

⇒ R = $\frac{R_1 R_2}{R_1 R_2} = \frac{8\ \times \ 8}{8\ + \ 8}$ = 4 Ω

Current that flows through 4Ω resistor

⇒ $I = \frac{V}{R}= \frac{8}{4 + \frac{8 \times 8}{8+8}}$

Potential difference across 4Ω resistance

⇒ V = IR = 1 × 4 = 4V

Disspated Power in 4 Ω resistor

⇒ P = I²R = 12 × 4 = 4W

Difference, if any, in ammeter readings

There is zero difference as because no current is seen to flow through the elements in a series circuit.

A wire of length $L$ is bent round into (i) a square coil having $N$ turns and (ii) a circular coil having $N$ turns. The coil in both cases is free to turn about a vertical axis coinciding with the plane of the coil, in a uniform, horizontal magnetic field and carry the same currents.
