Explanation / Answer

1

If the ewlectric field at a point is E, then the force experienced by a charge q at that point due to the electric field E is

F=qE. So the correct option is (a) F/q

2

LInes of force are ofcourse a concept used to visualize the strength of af anelectric field and direction of electric field. The strength at a point is proportional to the Number density of field lines and the direction is same as that of the tangent vector drawn in the direction of arrow on the line of force at that particular point.

3

The ammeter should be set to its largest range so that the range the unknown current can have is covered and measured.

4

Voltmeter is always connected in parallel to the circuit element for which the voltage is to be measured.

5

The total or equivalent resistance of resistors connected in series is simply equal to their sum. As such, the total resistance is larger than the resistance of any of the two.

6

As per the 4 Band Resistor Color Code of resistors the resistance is 12 kilo-Ohm +/- 5%.
