Cells: EMF, Internal Resistance & Combinations

The internal resistance of a 2.1 V cell which gives a current of 0.2 A through a resistance of 10 Ω\Omega is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. I=ER+r⇒R+r=2.10.2=10.5 ΩI = \frac{E}{R + r} \Rightarrow R + r = \frac{2.1}{0.2} = 10.5\ \Omega
  2. r=10.5−10=0.5 Ωr = 10.5 - 10 = 0.5\ \Omega. So the answer is (d) 0.5 Ω0.5\ \Omega.
