CBSEENPH12040026

A student measures the terminal potential difference (V) of a cell (of emf and internal resistance r) as a function of the current (I) flowing through it. The slope and intercept of the graph between V and I, then respectively, equal

  • straight epsilon space and space minus straight r
  • negative straight r space and space straight epsilon
  • straight r space and space minus straight epsilon
  • negative straight epsilon space and space straight r

Solution

B.

negative straight r space and space straight epsilon

According to Ohm's law
dV over dI space equals space minus straight r
and space straight V space equals straight epsilon space if space straight I space equals space 0 space left square bracket space As space straight V space plus Ir space equals space straight epsilon right square bracket
therefore comma space
Slope space of space the space graph space equals space minus space and space intercept space equals straight epsilon
