प्रश्न
Two cells of same emf E but internal resistance r1 and r2 are connected in series to an external resistor R (Figure). What should be the value of R so that the potential difference across the terminals of the first cell becomes zero.

उत्तर
In this problem first we apply Ohm' law to find current in the circuit.
Effective emf of two cells = E + E = 2E
Effective resistance = R + r1 + r2
So the electric current is given by
`I = (E + E)/(R + r_1 + r_2)`
`V_1 = E - Ir_1 = E - (2E.r_1)/(R + r_1 + r_2)`
The net potential difference across 1st cell V1 = 0 (Given)
∴ `E - (2Er_1)/(R + r_1 + r_2)` = 0
Or `1 - (2r_1)/(R + r_1 + r_2)` = 0
`(2r_1)/(r_1 + r_2 + R) = 1/1`
Or 2r1 = r1 + r2 + R
| r1 – r2 = R |
It is the required condition for the potential difference across 1st cell to be zero.
