Two identical cells of emf 1.5V each joined in parallel supply energy to an external circuit consisting of two resistances of 7Ω each joined in parallel. A very high resistance voltmeter reads the terminal voltage of cells to be 1.4V. Calculate the internal resistance of each cell.
Given, emf ![]()
Voltage reading, V=1.4V
As both resistances are in parallel.
∴![]()
So, net internal resistance ![]()
⇒![]()
As both internal resistances are connected in parallel.
So, each internal resistance ![]()
