When a 100-Ω resistor is connected across the terminals of a battery of emf ε and internal resistance r, the battery delivers 0.794 W of power to the 100-Ω resistor. When the 100-Ω resistor is replaced by a 200-Ω resistor, the battery delivers 0.401 W of power to the 200-Ω resistor. What are the emf and internal resistance of the battery?(A) ε = 10.0 V, r = 5.02 Ω(B) ε = 12.0 V, r = 6.00 Ω(C) ε = 4.50 V, r = 4.00 Ω(D) ε = 9.00 V, r = 2.04 Ω(E) ε = 9.00 V, r = 1.01 Ω

Answer:

(E) ε = 9.00 V, r = 1.01 Ω

Explanation:

As we know that power across the resistance is given as

[tex]P = i^2 R[/tex]

now we will have

[tex]P = 0.794 W[/tex]

[tex]R = 100 ohm[/tex]

now we have

[tex]0.794 = i^2(100)[/tex]

[tex]i = \frac{V}{100 + r}[/tex]

now we can use it as

[tex]0.794 = (\frac{V}{100 + r})^2(100)[/tex]

similarly now 100 ohm resistance is replaced by another resistance of 200 ohm

so we will have

[tex]P = 0.401 W[/tex]

[tex]R = 200 ohm[/tex]

now we have

[tex]0.401 = i^2(200)[/tex]

[tex]i = \frac{V}{200 + r}[/tex]

now we can use it as

[tex]0.401 = (\frac{V}{200 + r})^2(200)[/tex]

now we have

[tex]\frac{0.794}{0.401} = \frac{(200 + r)^2}{(100 + r)^2}\times \frac{100}{200}[/tex]

[tex]1.98 = (\frac{200 + r}{100 + r})^2 \times 0.5[/tex]

[tex]1.99 = \frac{200 + r}{100 + r}[/tex]

[tex]199 + 1.99 r = 200 + r[/tex]

[tex]r = 1.01 ohm[/tex]

now to find voltage of cell we will have

[tex]V = 9 Volts[/tex]
