37th answer is 12 W but answer is not in option sir, if possible provide me pdf of all q& a sir
Reply
answer for 41th question is wrong because if length of resistance doules then the resistance will be 4 times more than the previous
resistance valve, so ansswer is 0.8 ohms

Some question answers are wrong here, check question number 37, ideally its answer should be 12 watts. as I = 2 A and R= 3. So
power will be square of current and resistor.
