Short Answer TypeDraw a graph to show variation of capacitive-reactance with frequency in an a.c. circuit.
The field lines of a negative point charge are as shown in the figure. Does the kinetic energy of a small negative charge increase or decrease in going from B to A? 
Distinguish between emf and terminal voltage of a cell.

The maximum potential difference that can be delivered by a cell when no current flows through the circuit. |
Potential difference across the terminals of the load when the circuit is switched on and current flows through it. |
|
It is represented by E and remains constant for a cell. |
It is represented by V and depends on the internal resistance. |
In a meter bridge shown in the figure, the balance point is found to be 40 cm from end A. If a resistance of 10 is connected in series with R, balance point is obtained 60 cm from A. Calculate the values of R and S.
