Emf of a cell when the cell is charging and discharging and Open circuit and Short circuit

Open circuit:

  •  no current is taken from the cell. $i=0$
  • The potential difference between A and $\mathrm{B} V_{A B}=E$
  • The potential difference between C and $\mathrm{D} V_{C D}=0$

Short circuit

  • Two terminals of a cell are joined together by a thick conducting wire

  •  Maximum current $i=\frac{E}{r}$
     $V=0$

    Equation of cell
    1. When supplying the current: $E=V+i R$
    2. When the cell is being charged: $E=V-i R$
