If
(a) The emf of the battery is
(b) The value of the resistance
(c) The potential difference across the battery is
(d) The emf of the battery is
Show Answer
Solution:
- Given circuit in a series combination of internal resistance of cell
and external resistance .
Voltage difference across resistance
Now, from graph at
From Eq. (i) at
At
From Eq. (i) at
From Eqs. (ii) and (iii), we can get
