Two sources of equal $\mathrm{emf}$ are connected to an external resistance $R$ The internal resistances of the two sources are $R_1$ and $R_2\left(R_2>R_1\right)$. If the potential difference across the source having internal resistance $R_2$ is zero, then
- A
$\quad R=R_1 R_2 /\left(R_1+R_2\right)$
- B
$\quad R=R_1 R_2 /\left(R_2-R_1\right)$
- C
$\quad R=R_2 \times\left(R_1+R_2\right) /\left(R_2-R_1\right)$
- ✓
$\quad R=R_2-R_1$
AnswerCorrect option: D. $\quad R=R_2-R_1$
