Question 1 Report

Three electric cells each of e.m.f 1.5V and internal resistance of 1.0 \(\Omega\) are connected in parallel across an external resistance of \(\frac{2}{3}\Omega\). Calculate the value of the current in the resistor

Answer Details
E.m.f = 1.5

r =  1 ×   1 × 1 ( 1 ×   1 ) + ( 1 ×   1 ) + ( 1 ×   1 )

r =  1 3 Ω

I =  E . m . f r + R

I =  1.5 1 3   + 2 3

I = 1.5A
