A cell of e.m.f. $E$ is connected with an external resistance $R$, then p.d. across cell is $V$. The internal resistance of cell will be
A$\frac{{(E - V)R}}{E}$
B$\frac{{(E - V)R}}{V}$
C$\frac{{(V - E)R}}{V}$
D$\frac{{(V - E)R}}{E}$

B$\frac{{(E - V)R}}{V}$
b (b) Let the current in the circuit $ = i = \frac{V}{R}$
Across the cell, $E = V + ir$ $ \Rightarrow $ $r = \frac{{E - V}}{i} = \frac{{E - V}}{{V/R}} = \left( {\frac{{E - V}}{V}} \right)\,R$

A heating coil can heat the water of a vessel from $20\,^oC$ to $60\,^oC$ in $30$ minutes. Two such heating coils are put in series and then used to heat the same amount of water through the same temperature range. The time taken now will be ............ $min$ (neglecting thermal capacity of the coils)
In the adjacent shown circuit, a voltmeter of internal resistance $R$, when connected across $B$ and $C$ reads $\frac{{100}}{3}\,V$. Neglecting the internal resistance of the battery, the value of $R$ is ................. $k \Omega$
In given hollow cylindrical conductor current density is $J = \frac{J_0}{r^2}$ where $J_0$ is constant and $r$ is the distance from axis of cylinder. If radius of inner surface is $'a'$ and radius of outer surface is $2a$ then find current passed through the conductor.
Calculate the amount of charge flowing in $2$ minutes in a wire of resistance $10$ $\Omega$ when a potential difference of $20\,V$ is applied between its ends ............ $C$
Two wires that are made up of two different materials whose specific resistance are in the ratio $2 : 3$, length $3 : 4$ and area $4 : 5$. The ratio of their resistances is
A potentiometer is connected between $A$ and $B$ and the balance point is obtained at $203. 6\,cm$. When the end of the potentiometer connected to $B$ is shifted to $C$, then the balance point is obtained at $24.6\,cm$. If now the potentiometer be connected between $B$ and $C$, the balance point will be at ................. $cm$
