Two identical cells of emf 1.5 V each joined in parallel, supply energy to an external circuit consisting of two resistances of 7 Ω each joined in parallel. A very high resistance voltmeter reads the terminal voltage of cells to be 1.4 V. Calculate the internal resistance of each cell.

उत्तर
The two cells are connected in parallel. So, the equivalent emf is 1.5 V.
Now, the two resistors are connected in parallel. So, the equivalent resistance is
`1/R_(eq)=1/R+1/R=2/R`
`:.R_(eq)=R/2=7/2=3.5Omega`
The terminal voltage of the cells measured by the voltmeter is 1.4 V.
The net internal resistance of the combination of cells is
`r_(eq)=((varepsilon-V)/V)R`
`:.r_(eq)=(1.5-1.4)/1.4xx3.5=0.1/1.4xx3.5=0.25 Omega`
Now, the individual internal resistors are connected in parallel. So, the individual internal resistances is
`r_(eq)=(r')/2`
∴ r' = 2req = 2 x 0.25 = 0.5Ω

The earth’s surface has a negative surface charge density of 10−9 C m−2. The potential difference of 400 kV between the top of the atmosphere and the surface results (due to the low conductivity of the lower atmosphere) in a current of only 1800 A over the entire globe. If there were no mechanism of sustaining atmospheric electric field, how much time (roughly) would be required to neutralise the earth’s surface? (This never happens in practice because there is a mechanism to replenish electric charges, namely the continual thunderstorms and lightning in different parts of the globe). (Radius of earth = 6.37 × 106 m.)

A cell of emf E and internal resistance r is connected to two external resistance R1 and R2 and a perfect ammeter. The current in the circuit is measured in four different situations:

(iv) with R1 and R2 in parallel combination

Five cells each of emf E and internal resistance r send the same amount of current through an external resistance R whether the cells are connected in parallel or in series. Then the ratio `("R"/"r")` is:
