(b) $2.0 W$
(c) $1.28 W$
(d) $\frac{8}{9} W$

Answer:
Correct Answer: 91. (b)
Solution:
- (b) For maximum current, the two batteries should be connected in series. The current will be maximum when external resistance is equal to the total internal resistance of cells i.e. $2 \Omega$. Hence power devloped across the resistacne $R$ will be
$ I^{2} R=(\frac{2 E}{R+2 r})^{2} R=(\frac{2 \times 2}{2+2}) \times 2=2 W $
