The internal resistance of a 2.1 V cell which gives a current of 0.2 A through a resistance of 10 Ω is
-
- 0.5 Ω
- 0.8 Ω
- 1.0 Ω
- 0.2 Ω
Correct Option: A
Given : emf ε = 2.1 V
I = 0.2 A, R = 10Ω
Internal resistance r = ?
From formula.
ε – Ir = V = IR
2.1 – 0.2r = 0.2 × 10
2.1 – 0.2 r = 2 or 0.2 r = 0.1
⇒ r = | 0.1 | = 0.5 Ω |
0.2 |
