To verify Ohm's law, a student connects the voltmeter across the battery as, shown in the figure. The measured voltage is plotted as a function of the current, and the following graph is obtained:
If $V_0$ is almost zero, identify the correct statement:
- The value of the resistance $R$ is $1.5 \,\Omega$
- The emf of the battery is $1.5\, V$ and the value of $R$ is $1.5 \, \Omega$
- The emf of the battery is $1.5\, V$ and its internal resistance is $1.5$ $\Omega$
- The potential difference across the battery is $1.5\, V$ when it sends a current of $1000\, mA$
The Correct Option is C

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): Choke coil is simply a coil having a large inductance but a small resistance. Choke coils are used with fluorescent mercury-tube fittings. If household electric power is directly connected to a mercury tube, the tube will be damaged.
Reason (R): By using the choke coil, the voltage across the tube is reduced by a factor \( \frac{R}{\sqrt{R^2 + \omega^2 L^2}} \), where \( \omega \) is the frequency of the supply across resistor \( R \) and inductor \( L \). If the choke coil were not used, the voltage across the resistor would be the same as the applied voltage.

Radiation
Radiation is the energy or particles from a source that travels from one media to other. It travels through a medium after its emission from a source and is absorbed by matter.
Forms of Radiation:
- Particle Radiation includes the alpha (α), beta (β), and neutron radiations.
- Gravitational Radiation includes the radiation that takes the form of gravitational waves or as ripples in the curvature of space-time.
- Acoustic Radiation includes ultrasound, seismic and sound waves.
- Electromagnetic Radiation is inclusive of radio waves, gamma radiation (γ), x-rays, and visible light.
Types of Radiation:
- Ionizing Radiation - It carries more than 10 eV, that is enough to ionize atoms and molecules and break chemical bonds.
- Non-ionizing Radiation – It consists of alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma particles, whereas ionizing radiation consists of microwave radiation, infrared radiation and radio waves.
