$n$ identical cells are joined in series with two cells $A$ and $B$ having reversed polarities. The $emf$ of each cell is $E$ and the internal resistance is $r$. The potential difference across cell $A$ or $B$ is: $(n > 4)$

  • A
    $\frac{2E}{n}$
  • B
    $2E(1 - \frac{1}{n})$
  • C
    $\frac{4E}{n}$
  • D
    $2E(1 - \frac{2}{n})$

When a battery is connected across a resistor of $16 \Omega$,the voltage across the resistor is $12 \ V$. When the same battery is connected across a resistor of $10 \Omega$,the voltage across it is $11 \ V$. The internal resistance of the battery in ohm is

When cells are connected in parallel,then

Two cells,each of $e.m.f.$ $E$ and internal resistance $r$,are connected in parallel across an external resistor $R$. The maximum energy delivered to the resistor occurs when:

Twelve cells,each having emf $E$ volts,are connected in series and are kept in a closed box. Some of these cells are wrongly connected with positive and negative terminals reversed. This $12$-cell battery is connected in series with an ammeter,an external resistance $R$ ohms,and a two-cell battery (two cells of the same type used earlier,connected perfectly in series). The current in the circuit when the $12$-cell battery and $2$-cell battery aid each other is $3 \text{ A}$,and it is $2 \text{ A}$ when they oppose each other. Then,the number of cells in the $12$-cell battery that are connected wrongly is:

Two cells $E_1$ and $E_2$ having equal $EMF$ $E$ and internal resistances $r_1$ and $r_2$ $(r_1 > r_2)$ respectively are connected in series. This combination is connected to an external resistance $R$. It is observed that the potential difference across the cell $E_1$ becomes zero. The value of $R$ will be
