MCQ
Two identical cells send the same current in $2\,\Omega $ resistance, whether connected in series or in parallel. The internal resistance of the cell should be ............... $\Omega$
  • A
    $1$
  • $2$
  • C
    $0.5$
  • D
    $2.5$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$2$
b
In series , ${i_1} = \frac{{2E}}{{2 + 2r}}$

In parallel, ${I_2} = \frac{E}{{2 + \frac{r}{2}}} = \frac{{2E}}{{4 + r}}$

Since ${i_1} = {i_2}$ $ \Rightarrow $ $\frac{{2E}}{{4 + r}} = \frac{{2E}}{{2 + 2r}}$ $ \Rightarrow $ $r = 2\,\Omega $
