A battery of emf 2 volts and internal resistance 0.1 ohm is being charged with a current of 5 amps.
In what directions will the currents flow inside the battery? What is the potential difference between the two terminal of the battery?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The current will flow from the positive terminal to the negative
terminal in the battery. During charging, the potential difference
is `V +ir = 2+5xx0.1 = 2.5V.
