12 cells each of emf 1.5 v and internal resistance 0.5 ohm are arranged in m rows each containing n cells. Calculate the value of n and m for which this combination would send maximum current though 1.5 ohm
Dear Student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query:
Given that the circuit is having m rows & n cells for each row. Therefore, the effective emf of each branch is,
Internal resistance of each branch is,
Now, m such rows are there. So, the effective emf & Internal Resistance of the whole circuit is,
Therefore, the current through the resistor is,
