What will be the internal resistance of a cell of emf 2.2 V which gives a current of 0.2 A through a resistance of \( 10\Omega \) ?

  1. A \( 8.9 \, \Omega \)
  2. B \( 11.0 \, \Omega \)
  3. C \( 1.0 \, \Omega \)
  4. D \( 0.5 \, \Omega \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \( 1.0 \, \Omega \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( I = \frac{E}{R + r} \) \( 0.2 \, \text{A} = \frac{2.2 \, \text{V}}{10 \, \Omega + r} \) \( r = \frac{2.2}{0.2} - 10 = 11 - 10 = 1.0 \, \Omega \)
