A resistor is connected in series with a cell of EMF (E) and internal resistance (r). What is the potential difference (pd) across the internal resistance?
University of Ilorin PHY108 2025 past question
- E − V, where V is terminal pd
- V (terminal pd itself)
- E (the full EMF)
- Zero, as internal resistance has no pd
