The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the two non-ideal batteries connected in parallel and evaluate the statements about their equivalent EMF and internal resistance, we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Configuration**: - We have two non-ideal batteries connected in parallel. Let’s denote their EMFs as \( E_1 \) and \( E_2 \), and their internal resistances as \( r_1 \) and \( r_2 \). 2. **Calculating the Equivalent EMF**: - For batteries in parallel, the formula for the equivalent EMF (\( E_{eq} \)) is given by: \[ E_{eq} = \frac{E_1 r_1 + E_2 r_2}{r_1 + r_2} \] - This equation shows that the equivalent EMF is a weighted average of the individual EMFs, influenced by their internal resistances. 3. **Analyzing Statement A**: - We need to determine if \( E_{eq} < E_1 \) and \( E_{eq} < E_2 \). - From the formula, since both \( E_1 \) and \( E_2 \) are in the numerator and \( r_1 \) and \( r_2 \) are positive values, it can be concluded that: \[ E_{eq} > E_1 \quad \text{and} \quad E_{eq} > E_2 \] - Therefore, **Statement A** is **incorrect**. 4. **Calculating the Equivalent Internal Resistance**: - For internal resistances in parallel, the equivalent internal resistance (\( r_{eq} \)) is calculated using: \[ \frac{1}{r_{eq}} = \frac{1}{r_1} + \frac{1}{r_2} \] - This implies: \[ r_{eq} < r_1 \quad \text{and} \quad r_{eq} < r_2 \] - Hence, **Statement B** is **correct**. 5. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis: - Statement A is incorrect. - Statement B is correct. - Therefore, the correct answer is that **A is incorrect, B is correct**. ### Final Answer: The answer to the question is: **A is incorrect, B is correct**.
