$A$ galvanometer is connected in series with an unknown resistor $R$ and two identical batteries of $1.5\, V$ each. When the batteries are connected in series,the galvanometer shows a current of $1\, A$. When the batteries are connected in parallel,it shows a current of $0.6\, A$. The internal resistance of each battery is:

  • A
    $2/3\, \Omega$
  • B
    $1\, \Omega$
  • C
    $4/3\, \Omega$
  • D
    $1/3\, \Omega$

Explain cell,emf,and internal resistance. Derive the relation between potential difference,emf,and internal resistance.

Two sources of equal $emf$ $E$ are connected in series with an external resistance $R$. The internal resistances of the two sources are $R_1$ and $R_2$ $(R_2 > R_1)$. If the potential difference across the source of internal resistance $R_2$ is zero,then the value of $R$ is:

Two cells are connected between points $A$ and $B$ as shown. Cell $1$ has an emf of $12 \, V$ and an internal resistance of $3 \, \Omega$. Cell $2$ has an emf of $6 \, V$ and an internal resistance of $6 \, \Omega$. An external resistor $R$ of $4 \, \Omega$ is connected across $A$ and $B$. The current flowing through $R$ will be $............. \, A$.
