$A$ battery of emf $E$ has an internal resistance $r$. $A$ variable resistance $R$ is connected to the terminals of the battery. $A$ current $i$ is drawn from the battery. $V$ is the terminal potential difference. If $R$ alone is gradually reduced to zero,which of the following best describes $i$ and $V$?

  • A
    $i$ approaches zero,$V$ approaches $E$
  • B
    $i$ approaches $\frac{E}{r}$,$V$ approaches zero
  • C
    $i$ approaches $\frac{E}{r}$,$V$ approaches $E$
  • D
    $i$ approaches infinity,$V$ approaches $E$

When an ammeter of negligible internal resistance is inserted in series with the circuit,it reads $1 \, A$. When a voltmeter of very large resistance is connected across $X$,it reads $1 \, V$. When points $A$ and $B$ (across $Y$) are shorted by a conducting wire,the voltmeter measures $10 \, V$ across the battery. The internal resistance of the battery is equal to .............. $\Omega$.

An ammeter and a voltmeter of resistance $R$ are connected in series to an electric cell of negligible internal resistance. Their readings are $A$ and $V$ respectively. If another resistance $R$ is connected in parallel with the voltmeter, what happens to the readings $A$ and $V$?
