A cell can be balanced against `110 cm` and `100 cm` of potentiometer wire, respectively with and without being short circuited through a resistance of `10 Omega`. Its internal resistance is

A

2.0 ohm

B

zero

C

1.0 ohm

D

0.5 ohm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Here, `l_(1)=110cm, l_(2)=100cm, R=10Omega`,
`r=((l_(1)-l_(2))/(l_(2)))R=((110-100)/(100))xx10=1.0Omega`
