A cell of emf 2 V and internal resistance 0.5 Ω is connected to a 3.5 Ω resistor. Find the current and the terminal potential difference.
Original Khojo Papers practice question — not from a past board paper.
Answer
Current 0.5 A and terminal potential difference 1.75 V.
No citable source has been recorded for this record. Treat it as practice material, not as fact.
Explanation
I = E/(R + r) = 2 ÷ 4 = 0.5 A, and the terminal potential difference is IR = 0.5 × 3.5 = 1.75 V.
