A battery of emf \(12 \mathrm{~V}\) and internal resistance \(4 \Omega\) is connected to a resistor. The resistance of the resistor if the current in the circuit is \(0.8 \mathrm{~A}\) is

  1. A \(11 \Omega\)
  2. B \(9 \Omega\)
  3. C \(15 \Omega\)
  4. D \(13 \Omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(11 \Omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The circuit can be drawn as Current in circuit, \(I=\frac{E}{r+R}\) Substituting given values, we get, \(0.8=\frac{12}{R+4}\) \(\Rightarrow \quad R+4=15 \Rightarrow R=11 \Omega\)
