Question:

When no resistance is connected across a real battery, the potential difference across its terminals is measured to be 6V. When a R = 2Ω resistor is connected across the battery, a current of 2A is measured through the resistor. What is the internal resistance, r, of the battery?

Options:

0.5Ω

0.2Ω

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

\(\frac{6}{r + 2 \Omega}\) = 2 A

r = 1 \(\Omega\)
