    A cell supplies a current of \[0.9\] A through a \[2\Omega \] resistor and \[0.3\] A through a \[7\Omega \] resistor. What is the internal resistance of the cell?

    A)  \[0.5\,\,\Omega \]                  

    B)         \[1\,\,\Omega \]

    C)  \[1.2\,\,\Omega \]                

    D)         \[2\,\,\Omega \]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Here, we have been given similar information?s twice, to obtain two simultaneous linear equations. Substituting\[E-Ir=V\], the following two equations can be obtained                 \[E=0\cdot 9r=1\cdot 8\]                 \[E-0\cdot 3r=2\cdot 1\] Since, \[r\] is to be calculated, \[E\] is eliminated below:                 \[1\cdot 8+0\cdot 9r=2\cdot 1+0\cdot 3r\] or            \[r=\frac{0\cdot 3}{0\cdot 6}=0\cdot 5\]
