The drift velocity of free electrons in a conductor is \(v\) when a current \(i\) is flowing in it. If both the radius and current are doubled, then the drift velocity will be:
1.  \(v\)
2. \(\frac{v}{2}\)$$
3. \(\frac{v}{4}\)$$
4. \(\frac{v}{8}\)

A battery has e.m.f. 4 V and internal resistance r. When this battery is connected to an external resistance of 2 ohm, a current of 1 ampere flows in the circuit. How much current will flow if the terminals of the battery are connected directly?

4.  $\frac{5}{3}$ $\mathrm{A}$

A meter bridge is set up to determine unknown resistance x using a standard 10 $\Omega$ resistor. The galvanometer shows the null point when the tapping key is at a 52 cm mark. End corrections are 1 cm and 2 cm respectively for end A and B. Then the value of x is:

2.  10.6 $\Omega$

3.  10.8 $\Omega$

3. 11.1 $\Omega$
