If cells are joined in parallel, they have _______.
  • a)
    same current
  • b)
    same emf
  • c)
    same potential difference
  • d)
    same internal resistance
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Hansa Sharma answered
Components connected in parallel provide alternative pathways for current flow. When cells are connected in parallel, the total voltages that they provide does not change. For example, when two or more 2 V cells are connected in parallel, they still provide a total voltage of 2 V.
1st case[series]
I=E+E/r+r+1-----1
2nd case[parallel]
I=E[E will be same in parallel]/(1/r)+(1/r)+(1/1)----2
Current in both cases are the same.
1=2
2E/2r+1=E/(2/r)+1
R=1 Ω
In series connection of cells total internal resistance=nr total resistance of circuit=nR current is same potential difference is different so,I=nv/nR+nr I=V/R+r current is same as before in parallel connection of cells total internal resistance=r/n total resistance of circuit=R/n total current=nI potential difference is same nI=V/r/n+R/n I=V/R+r current is same as before

The equivalent emf of two cells (with ε1 > ε2) in series if we connect two negative electrodes of adjacent cells is
  • a)
    εequivalent
  • b)
    εequivalent
  • c)
    εequivalent = ε2 - ε11 > ε2)
  • d)
    εequivalent = ε1 - ε2 (ε1 > ε2)
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Sushil Kumar answered
When we connect cells to form a battery, we join opposite ends(+ve with -ve and vice versa) to get supporting emf, i.e. net emf get added, but when we join the same polarities(-ve with -ve, like in the question), they oppose each other, hence net emf is the difference b/w them.
The expression for equivalent emf when two cells of emf’s
εeq = ε1 - ε21> ε2)

When number of identical cells, in parallel combination are increased, the voltage of the circuit will
  • a)
    Increase
  • b)
    Decrease
  • c)
    Remain same
  • d)
    Depends on the internal resistance of the battery
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Lavanya Menon answered
The voltage developed by the cells in parallel connection cannot be increased by increasing the number of cells present in the circuit. It is because they do not have the same circular path. In parallel connection the connection provides power based on one cell.
The voltage will remain the same.

If cells are joined in series, they have ________.
  • a)
    same internal resistance
  • b)
    same potential difference
  • c)
    same emf
  • d)
    same current
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

In series circuit, the same current is flowing through each resistor... but the voltage across each resistor varies... because higher the value of resistance in resistor.. greater is the voltage drop acrosss that resistor....

In a circuit resistors are connected in series, the value of current through the circuit is
  • a)
    remains the same
  • b)
    increases
  • c)
    decreases
  • d)
    becomes half
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Ciel Knowledge answered
When resistors are connected in series, the current through each resistor
remains the same.
The total voltage across all the resistors is equal to the sum of the
voltages across each resistor.
