Two resistors of resistance,
and
are connected in parallel in an electrical circuit, The ratio of the thermal energy developed in
to that in
in a given time is [NEET 2022]
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
The given situation is shown in the following circuit diagram .

Let, these two resistors are connected with a battery of voltage V volts .
Hence, potential difference across R 1 and R are given as

If H 1 and H 2 are thermal energy produced through resistances R 1 and R 2 in time t, then

and 
Hence ,
