उत्तर

The resistances are series connected

∴ Total resistance of circuit = (r + R)

(r + R) = (2 + 0.7 + 4.5)

= 7.2 Ω

e.m.f. of cell = 1.8 V

  1.  Reading of Ammeter `I = "V"/("R" + r)`
    = `("e.m.f")/("R" + r)`
    `I = 1.8/7.2`
    = 0.25 A
  2. Potential difference across the terminals of the cell = IR
    `"V" = 1/4 xx 5.2`
    V = 1.3 V
    R = 4.5 + 0.7
    R = 5.2 Ω
