A storage battery of emf 10 V and internal resistance 2\ is being...
A storage battery of emf and internal resistance is being charged by a DC supply using a series resistor of as shown in the given figure. The terminal voltage of the battery during the charging process is:
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
D.
Step-by-step solution
The net electromotive force (EMF) in the circuit is the difference between the two opposing voltage sources:
The total resistance in the series circuit is:
The current flowing through the circuit is:
During the charging process, the current flows into the positive terminal of the battery. The terminal voltage across the battery is given by:
Substituting the given values:
