D$0.4$
d $(4 + r)i = 2.2$ ...... $(i)$
and $4i = 2$ $ \Rightarrow $ $i = \frac{1}{2}$
Putting the value of $i$ in $(i)$, we get $r = 0.4\, ohm$.

A car battery of $e.m.f$. $12\,V$ and internal resistance $5 \times {10^{ - 2}}\,\Omega $, receives a current of $60\; A$ from external source, then terminal voltage of battery is
In a wire of circular cross-section with radius $r$, free electrons travel with a drift velocity $V$ when a current $I$ flows through the wire. What is the current in another wire of half the radius and of the same material when the drift velocity is $2V$
An electrical bulb rated $220\,V , 100\,W$, is connected in series with another bulb rated $220\,V$, $60\,W$.If the voltage across combination is $220\,V$, the power consumed by the $100\,W$ bulb will be about $........... W$
Four ammeters with identical internal resistance $r$ and a resistor $R$ are connected to a current source as given. if reading of $A_1$ and $A_2$ is $3\ A$ and $5\ A$ respectively then the reading $A_4$ is ............. $A$
