Question

A battery is made by joining m rows of identical cells in parallel. Each row consists of n cells joined in series. This battery sends a maximum current I in a given external resistor. Now the cells are so arranged that instead of m rows, n rows are joined in parallel and each row consists of m cells joined in series. Find the current through the same external resistor (Total number of cells which is equal to NM is connected).​

Answer 1

Answer:

Each row consists of n cells joined in series. The total number of cells is equal to N. This battery sends a maximum current lin a given external circuit. Now, the cells are so arranged in the battery that instead of m rows rows are joined in parallel and each row consists of m cells joined in series.
