Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
A uniform wire is connected across a supply which produces heat H per second is,

The wire is cut into n equal parts.
Hence, resistance of each part is 
The resistance are in parallel connection along with the same supply.

Hence, 
Now, heat produced per second,
