To verify Ohm's law, a student connects the voltmeter across the battery as, shown in the figure. The measured voltage is plotted as a function of the current, and the following graph is obtained : JEE Main 2019 (Online) 12th April Morning Slot Physics - Current Electricity Question 231 English
If V0 is almost zero, identify the correct statement :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A The value of the resistance R is 1.5 Ω\Omega
  • B The emf of the battery is l.5 V and its internal resistance is 1.5 Ω\Omega
  • C The emf of the battery is l.5 V and the value of R is 1.5 Ω\Omega
  • D The potential difference across the battery is 1.5 V when it sends a current of 1000 mA

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

V = E – Ir

When V = V0 = 0 ⇒\Rightarrow 0 = E – Ir

∴\therefore E = r

When I = 0, V = E = 1.5 V

∴\therefore r = 1.5 Ω\Omega
