Neet Solved Paper 2013 Question 26

Question: The internal resistance of a 2.1 V cell which gives a current of 0.2 A through a resistance of $ 10,\Omega $ is

Options:

A) $ 0.2,\Omega $

B) $ 0.5,\Omega $

C) $ 0.8,\Omega $

D) $ 1.0,\Omega $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

  • As $ l=\frac{E}{R+r} $ or $ E=l(R+r) $ $ 2.1=0.2(10+r) $ $ 10+r=\frac{2.1}{2}\times 10 $
    $ \therefore $ $ r=10.5-10=0.5,\Omega $
