To solve the problem, we need to apply Ohm's Law and the concept of internal resistance in a circuit. Let's break down the solution step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the Circuit We have a cell with an electromotive force (e.m.f.) denoted as \( E \) and an internal resistance denoted as \( r \). The cell is connected to an external resistor \( R \). ### Step 2: Set Up the Equations We are given two scenarios: 1. When the external resistance \( R_1 = 1.9 \, \Omega \), the current \( I_1 = 1.0 \, A \). ...
