  1. Question 1

    Q1. A battery of emf 12 V and internal resistance 2 ohm is connected to a resistor. If the current in the circuit is 0.5 A, the resistance of the resistor is?

    • A) 20 ohm
    • B) 22 ohm
    • C) 18 ohm
    • D) 24 ohm - 2 ohm

    Answer: 22 ohm

    Explanation: Using I = E / (R + r), we have 0.5 = 12 / (R + 2). So, R + 2 = 24, R = 22 ohm.
