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

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


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.

Four cells, each of e.m.f. 1.5 V and internal resistance 2.0 ohms are connected in parallel. The battery of cells is connected to an external resistance of 2.5 ohms. Calculate:

(i) The total resistance of the circuit.
(ii) The current flowing in the external circuit.
(iii) The drop in potential across-the terminals of the cells.


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.
