When two cells of negligible internal resistances and equal e.m.f. denoted by E\(_1\) and E\(_2\) are connected in parallel, combined e.m.f. E is given by
 

a

E = E\(_1\) + E\(_2\)

b

\(\frac{1}{E} = \frac{1}{E_1} + \frac{1}{E_2}\)

c

E = E\(_1\) = E\(_2\)

d

E = \(\frac{E_1}{E_2}\)

MySchool please endeavour to correct this error. The correct answer is C. E=E1=E2 for parallel connection of the cells. Ref: New School Physics Pg.396, Topic: Current Electricity.
