Question

Statement-1: In real battery total chemical energy lost in the battery can not be obtained at load resistance. Statement-2: Two heaters with different resistance are connected in parallel. Higher resistance heater will glow more.

• A. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.
• B. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True; Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1.
• C. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.
• D. Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

C. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.

Answer 2

Statement-1 is true because a real battery has internal resistance, causing energy loss as heat within the battery. Statement-2 is false because in a parallel connection, power dissipated is inversely proportional to resistance ($P = V^2/R$), so the higher resistance heater dissipates less power.
