Question on: JAMB Physics - 2004

A cell whose internal resistance is 0.5Ω delivers a current of 4A to an external resistor,The loss voltage of the cell is
A
1.250V
B
2.000V
C
8.000V
D
0.125V
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: B
E = V + v

where E = emf of cell.
V = terminal p.d
v = loss voltage of the cell.

But from ohm's law V=IR ; v = Iv

\( \implies \) lost voltage = V = Ir
= 4 x 0.5
= 2.0v
