Which of the following statements are correct? (A) The emf of a cell depends on the internal resistance of the cell. Choose the correct answer from the options given below: |
(A), (B) and (C) only (C) and (D) only (B), (C) and (D) only (A), (B) and (D) only |
(C) and (D) only |
The correct answer is Option (2) → (C) and (D) only Analysis of statements: (A) The emf of a cell depends on the internal resistance of the cell → False. EMF is determined by chemical composition, not internal resistance. (B) The emf of a cell depends on the external resistance of the circuit → False. EMF is independent of external resistance. (C) It is easier to start a car engine on a warm day than on a cold day → True. Battery performance and fuel vaporization are better at higher temperatures. (D) The temperature coefficient of resistance (α) of carbon is negative → True. Carbon is a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) material. Correct Statements: (C) and (D) |
