MCQ

Choose the correct statement:

A
The potential difference between the terminals of a cell in closed circuit is called $\text{EMF}$ of the cell.
B
Electromotive force and accelerating force have the same dimensions.
C
The internal resistance of an ideal cell is infinity.
✓
The difference between the emf of a cell and potential difference across the ends of the cell is called lost volts.

✓

Answer

Correct option: D.

The difference between the emf of a cell and potential difference across the ends of the cell is called lost volts.

When the battery is discharging, the terminals voltage of the battery is always $≤$ Emf of cell $[∵\text{r}>0]$
$\therefore$ There will always be a difference which is defined to be lost volt.
