A cell of internal resistance r supplies current to a 6.0Ω resistor and its efficiency is 75%. Find the value of r.
-
A.
4.5Ω
-
B.
1.0Ω
-
C.
8.0Ω
-
D.
2.0Ω
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation
Efficiency = power out put/power input * 100/1
= power out put/ power + that due * 100/1
to internal resistance
=> 75/1 = 12R *100/1
12(R+r)
i.e 75/100 = 6/6+r => 75 (6+r) = 100/*6
i.e 450 + 75r = 600
75r =600 - 450
i.e r = 150/75 = 2Ω
i.e r = 2Ω
