Question

2 cells of emf 1.5 and 2V having internal resistance 1 and 2 are connected parallel to pass a current in same direction through an external resistance of 5ohm find the current passing through each branch and the potential difference across 5ohm

Answer 1

Answer:

Here's the answer.

Explanation:

Two cells of emfs 1.5 V and 2.0V internall resistance 1Ω and 2Ω are connected in parallel so as to send current in the same direction through an external resistance of 5Ω.

(i) Draw the circuit diagram. (ii) Using Kirchhoff's rules, calculate.

(a) current through each branch of the circuit (b) potential difference across the 5Ω resistance
