A cell of emf E and internal resistance r gives current of 0.5 A with external resistance of 12 \(\Omega\) and a current of 0.25 A with an external resistance 25 \(\Omega\). What is the value of internal resistance?

  1. A 5 \(\Omega\)
  2. B 1 \(\Omega\)
  3. C 7 \(\Omega\)
  4. D 3 \(\Omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 1 \(\Omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I_1(R_1 + r) = I_2(R_2 + r)\) \(0.5(12 + r) = 0.25(25 + r)\) \(2(12 + r) = 25 + r\) \(24 + 2r = 25 + r\) \(r = 1 \, \Omega\)
