Two sources of equal $emf$ $E$ are connected in series with an external resistance $R$. The internal resistances of the two sources are $R_1$ and $R_2$ $(R_2 > R_1)$. If the potential difference across the source of internal resistance $R_2$ is zero,then the value of $R$ is:

Two identical cells each of emf $1.5 \,V$ are connected in parallel across an external resistance formed by two $20 \,\Omega$ resistors connected in parallel. $A$ voltmeter connected in the circuit measures $1.2 \,V$. The internal resistance of each cell is ................. $\Omega$.

$A$ resistance $R$ is connected to $n$ identical cells. If the current in the resistance is the same whether the cells are connected in series or in parallel,then the internal resistance $r$ of each cell is:

Twelve cells,each having emf $E$ volts,are connected in series and are kept in a closed box. Some of these cells are wrongly connected with positive and negative terminals reversed. This $12$-cell battery is connected in series with an ammeter,an external resistance $R$ ohms,and a two-cell battery (two cells of the same type used earlier,connected perfectly in series). The current in the circuit when the $12$-cell battery and $2$-cell battery aid each other is $3 \text{ A}$,and it is $2 \text{ A}$ when they oppose each other. Then,the number of cells in the $12$-cell battery that are connected wrongly is:

What is meant by the series connection of cells? Derive the equation for the equivalent electromotive force $(emf)$ of two cells with $emf$ $\varepsilon_1$ and $\varepsilon_2$ connected in series.
