Two resistors of 2.0 Ω and 3.0 Ω are connected (a) in series (b) in parallel, with a battery of 6.0 V and negligible internal resistance. For each case draw a circuit diagram and calculate the current through the battery.
The following circuit diagram shows three resistors 2 Ω, 4 Ω and R Ω connected to a battery of e.m.f 2V and internal resistance 3 Ω. If the main current of 0.25 A flows through the circuit, find:
- the p.d. across the 4 Ω resistors,
- the p.d. across the internal resistance of the cell,
- the p.d. across the R Ω or 2 Ω resistors, and
- the value of R.

The diagram shows two ways of connecting three lamps P, Q and R to A.C. supply of 220 V.
