MCQ
Eels are able to generate current with biological cells called electroplaques. The electroplaques in an eel are arranged in $100$ rows, each row stretching horizontally along the body of the fish containing $5000$ electroplaques. The arrangement is suggestively shown below. Each electroplaques has an emf of $0.15 V$ and internal resistance of $0.25 W$

The water surrounding the eel completes a circuit between the head and its tail. If the water surrounding it has a resistance of $500 W,$ the current an eel can produce in water is about
  • $1.5 A$
  • B
    $3.0 A$
  • C
    $15 A$
  • D
    $30 A$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$1.5 A$
