Given:
I1=0.48A;I2=0.3A;R1=21Ω;R2=36Ω.
Find:
E -EMF and r - internal resistance .
Solution:
Let's use Ohm's law for whole circuit:
I=E/(R+r); In our case:
I1=E/(R1+r);I2=E/(R2+r);
So,
E=I1(R1+r);E=I2((R2+r);
I1(R1+r)=I2(R2+r);
r(I1−I2)=I2R2−I1R1;
r=(I2R2−I1R1)/(I1−I2)=(0.3A∗36Ω−0.48A∗21Ω)/(0.48A−0.3A)=4Ω.
E=I1(R1+r)=0.3A∗(21Ω+4Ω)=7.5V.
Answer:
E=7.5V;r=4Ω.
