उत्तर
(a) e.m.f. of 8 cells in series = 8 × 1.5 V = 12 V
(b) Internal resistance of 8 cells series = 8 × 0.25 Ω = 2 Ω
(c) Equivalent resistance 12 Ω and (4 + 2 = 6 Ω) in parallel.
\[ \frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_{p}} = \frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{6}\]
\[ \frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_{p}} = \frac{3}{12}\]
\[ \frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_{p}} = \frac{1}{4} \]
\[ \therefore \mathrm{R}_{p} = 4 \ \Omega\]
∴ Total external resistance = 0.5 Ω + 1.5 Ω + 4 Ω = 6 Ω
(d) \[ \text{Current recorded by ammeter (I)} = \frac{\mathrm{E}}{\mathrm{R} + \mathrm{r}} = \frac{12}{6 + 2} = \frac{12}{8} = 1.5 \ \text{A}\]
(e) p.d. across parallel circuit, V = IR = 1.5 × 4 = 6 V
\[ \text{(i) Current in } 12 \ \Omega \text{ resistor, } \mathrm{I} = \frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{R}} = \frac{6}{12} = 0.5 \ \text{A}\]
\[ \text{(ii) Current in } (4 + 2 = 6 \ \Omega) \text{ resistor, } \mathrm{I} = \frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{R}} = \frac{6}{6} = 1.0 \ \text{A}\]
(f) Drop in potential across the terminal of the battery
E − V = Ir = 1.5 × 2 = 3 V
