WBJEE · Physics · Current Electricity

A battery of emf \(\mathrm{E}\) and internal resistance \(\mathrm{r}\) is connected with an external resistance \(\mathrm{R}\) as shown in the figure. The battery will act as a constant voltage source if
- A \(r< < R\)
- B \(r>>R\)
- C \(r=R\)
- D It will never act as a constant voltage source
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(r< < R\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(V_R=\frac{E}{(R+r)} \times R, \quad V_R=\frac{E}{(1+r / R)}\) \(r < R, V_R \approx E\)
