उत्तर

Let us first assume the equivalent internal resistance of the battery is Reff, the equivalent external resistance R and the equivalent voltage of the battery is Veff.

Now by applying Ohm's law,

Then current through R is given by `I = (V_"eff")/(R_"eff" + R)`


Now according to the question if all the resistances and the effective voltage are increased n-times, then we have

`V_("eff")^("new") = nV_("eff"), R_("eff")^("new") = nR_("eff")`

And Rnew = nR

Then, the new current is given by

`I^' = (nV_("eff"))/(nR_("eff") + nR) = (n(V_("eff")))/(n(R_("eff") + R)) = ((V_("eff")))/((R_("eff") + R)) = I`

The last result of two equations is same, so we can say that current remains the same.
