Two cells with same emf $E$ but different internal resistances,$r_1$ and $r_2$,are connected in series to an external resistance $R$. If the potential difference across the first cell is zero,then the value of $R$ is

  • A
    $\frac{r_1-r_2}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{r_1+r_2}{2}$
  • C
    $r_1-r_2$
  • D
    $(r_1+r_2)$

$A$ cell of emf $1.2 \ V$ and internal resistance $2 \ \Omega$ is connected in parallel to another cell of emf $1.5 \ V$ and internal resistance $1 \ \Omega$. If the like poles of the cells are connected together,the emf of the combination of the two cells is (in $V$)

$n$ identical cells each of $e.m.f.$ $E$ and internal resistance $r$ are connected in series. An external resistance $R$ is connected in series to this combination. The current through $R$ is

The circuit in the figure shows two cells connected in opposition to each other. Cell $E_1$ has an $emf$ of $6 \ V$ and an internal resistance of $2 \ \Omega$. Cell $E_2$ has an $emf$ of $4 \ V$ and an internal resistance of $8 \ \Omega$. Find the potential difference between the points $A$ and $B$.

When does the current drawn from a cell become maximum?
