When a current of $1\, A$ is passed through a conductor whose ends are maintained at a temperature difference of $1\, ^oC$,the amount of heat evolved or absorbed is called:

  • A
    Peltier coefficient
  • B
    Thomson coefficient
  • C
    Thermoelectric power
  • D
    Thermo $e.m.f.$

$A$ cell of emf $E$ is connected to a resistance $R_{1}$ for time $t$ and the amount of heat generated in it is $H$. If the resistance $R_{1}$ is replaced by another resistance $R_{2}$ and is connected to the cell for the same time $t$, the amount of heat generated in $R_{2}$ is $4H$. Then the internal resistance $r$ of the cell is:
