A cell has an open circuit voltage V1 and a closed circuit voltage V2 when a current is flowing through it. Therefore, the internal resistance of the cell is
\(\frac{V_2}{I}\)
\(\frac{V_1}{I}\)
\(\frac{(V_1 + V_2)}{I}\)
\(\frac{(V_1 - V_2)}{I}\)
\(\frac{(V_2 - V_1)}{I}\)
ব্যাখ্যা
On open circuit, voltage = V\(_1\), On a closed circuit voltage drops due to internal resistance V\(_2\) = I r
But according to Ohm's law, voltage drop( V\(_d\) = I r
V\(_d\) = V\(_1\) - V\(_2\) = Ir
r = \(\frac{(V_1 - V_2)}{I}\)
