The internal resistance of an accumulato...

The internal resistance of an accumulator battery of emf 6V is `10(Omega)`when it is fully discharged,As the battery gets charged up.its internal resistance decreases to `1(Omega)`The battery in its completely discharged state is connected to a charger which maintains a constant potential difference of 9 V.Find the current through the battery (a)just after the connections are made and (b) after a long time when it is completely charged.

Verified by Experts

(a) Net e.m.f. while charging
` = 9-6 = 3v`
` :. Current = 3/10 = 0.3A `
(b)When completely charged internal
resistance 'r' = `1 Omega `
` So, Current = 3/1 = 3A.`
