Objectives of Standing Orders
Indian Legal System > Civil Laws > Labour Laws > Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946 > Objectives of Standing Orders During the era of laissez-faire (prior to the enactment of the “Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946,” ) the policy of hire and fire was very common. The economic law of demand and supply […]
Potentiometer
Science > Physics > Current Electricity > Potentiometer In this article, we shall study the principle, construction, and working of a potentiometer and its uses. Principle of Potentiometer: When a steady current flows through a wire of uniform cross-section the potential difference per unit length of the wire is constant throughout the length of the […]

If the unknown resistance is shunted by equal resistance, […]
Science > Physics > Current Electricity > Numerical Problems on Wheatstone’s Metre Bridge 01 In this article and the next article, we shall study numerical problems based on Wheatstone’s metre bridge. Example – 01: A resistance of 10 Ω is connected in a left gap of a metre bridge. Two resistors of 20 Ω and 16 Ω are […]
Kirchhoff’s Laws
Science > Physics > Current Electricity > Kirchhoff’s Laws In this article, we shall study Kirchhoff’s laws, construction, working and uses of Wheatstone’s metre bridge. There are two Kirchhoff’s laws viz: current law or junction law and voltage law or mesh law. Kirchhoff’s Current Law or Kirchhoff’s Junction Law: Statement: In an electric network, the algebraic sum of […]
Temperature Dependence of Resistance
Science > Physics > Current Electricity > Temperature Dependence of Resistance In this article, we shall study the effect of temperature on the value of resistance and thermistors and their uses. A metallic conductor consists of a large number of free electrons. These electrons are always in a state of random motion. When a potential […]
Introduction to Current Electricity
Science > Physics > Current Electricity > Introduction In this article, we shall study the concept of current electricity, the resistance, ohm’s law, and the conductance of a conductor. Electric Current Through Conductor: A conductor is made up of very minute particles called atoms. Atoms consist of a positively charged nucleus and negatively charged electrons […]
