The storage battery of a car has an emf of 10 V. If the internal resistance of the battery is 0.2 Ω, then the maximum current that can be drawn from the battery is |
100 A 10 A 5 A 50 A |
50 A |
The correct answer is Option (4) → 50 A Given: EMF of battery: $E = 10$ V Internal resistance: $r = 0.2 \ \Omega$ Maximum current occurs when external resistance $R = 0$: $I_\text{max} = \frac{E}{r}$ $I_\text{max} = \frac{10}{0.2} = 50$ A Answer: $I_\text{max} = 50$ A |
