Solve by difficulty

 A d.c. main supply of e.m.f. 220 V is connected across a storage battery of e.m.f. 200 V through a resistance of 1\Omega. The battery terminals are connected to an external resistance ‘R’. The minimum value of ‘R’, so that a current passes through the battery to charge it is :

 

A cell supplies a current I_1 through a coil of resistance R_1, a current I_2 through a coil of resistance R_2. The emf of the cell is

Current Given by a Cell

 

  1.       Current supplied by the cell

 

  • Cell supplies a constant current in the circuit.

i=\frac{E}{R+r}    ,

 R- External resistance

r-  internal resistance

  • Potential drop inside the cell=ir

  • The internal resistance of the cell

r=(\frac{E}{V}-1)R

  • Power dissipated in external resistance

P=\left(\frac{E}{R+r}\right)^{2} R

  • Maximum power is obtained when the resistance value of the load is equal in value to that of the voltage sources internal resistance. 

Maximum power P_{max}=\frac{E^{2}}{4r}
