A cell of e.m.f. ε and internal resistance 𝔯 sends current 1.0 A when it is connected to an external resistance 1.9 Ω. But it sends current 0.5 A when it is connected to an external resistance 3.9 Ω. Calculate the values of ε and 𝔯.

उत्तर

In first case

I = 1 A, R = 1.9 ohm

ε = I (R + r)

= 1(1.9 + r)

ε = 1.9 + r   ...(1)

In second case

I = 0.5 A, R = 3.9 ohm

ε = I(R + r)

= 0.5 (3.9 + r)

ε = 1.95 + 0.5r   ...(2)

From eq. (1) and (2),

1.9 + r = 1.95 + 0.5r

r = `0.05/0.5`

r = 0.1 ohm

Substituting value of r

ε = 1.9 + r

= 1.9 + 0.1

= 2 V

What happens to the resistivity of semiconductor with the increase of temperature?


Name two factors on which the internal resistance of a cell depends and state how does it depend on the factors stated by you.


A cell of e.m.f ε and internal resistance r is used to send current to an external resistance R. Write expressions for

  1. the total resistance of circuit.
  2. the current drawn from the cell.
  3. the p.d. across the cell.
  4. voltage drop inside the cell. 

Explain why the p.d across the terminals of a cell is more in an open circuit and reduced in a closed circuit. 


A cell is used to send current to an external circuit.

  1. How does the voltage across its terminals compare with its e.m.f.?
  2. Under what condition is the e.m.f. of a cell equal to its terminal voltage? 

The diagram below in Fig. 8.40 shows a cell of e.m.f. ε = 2 volt and internal resistance r = 1 ohm to an external resistance R = 4 ohm. The ammeter A measures the current in the circuit and the
voltmeter V measures the terminal voltage across the cell. What will be the readings of the ammeter and voltmeter when (i) the key K is open, (ii) the key K is closed. 

  


A battery of e.m.f. 15 V and internal resistance 3 ohm is connected to two resistors of resistances 3 ohm and 6 ohm is series Find:

(b) the p.d. between the terminals of the battery. 


A cell of e.m.f. 2 V and internal resistance 1.2 Ω is connected to an ammeter of resistance 0.8 Ω and two resistors of 4.5 Ω and 9 Ω as shown in following figure.

Find:

  1. The reading of the ammeter,
  2. The potential difference across the terminals of the cells, and
  3. The potential difference across the 4.5 Ω resistor.

When a resistance of 3Ω is connected across a cell, the current flowing is 0.5 A. On changing the resistance to 7Ω, the current becomes 0.25A. Calculate the e.m.f. and the internal resistance of the cell.


Study the diagram:

  1. Calculate the total resistance of the circuit.
  2. Calculate the current drawn from the cell.
  3. State whether the current through 10 Ω resistor is greater than, less than or equal to the current through the 12 Ω resistor.
