With same emf of 10 V, a combination of two batteries with different internal resistances of 20 ohm and 5 ohm, is attached to parallel combination of 30 ohm and R ohm. Find value of R.

As per the given question, the following can be represented:

  • The emf of two batteries = 10 V
  • Internal resistances of Two batteries = 20 Ω and 5 Ω
  • Parallel combination = 30 Ω and R Ω.
  • Voltage Difference across the battery of internal resistance 20 Ω = zero

Parallel Combination of Resistors

Parallel Combination of Resistors

Now, in order to determine the value of R:

E1 = E – ir

E2 = E – ir

= 10 – i20 = 0

= 10 – 0.5 × 5

i = 0.5 A

= 7.5 V

Thus,

Enet = E1 + E2 = 7.5 V

⇒ i = i1 + i2 

⇒ 0.5 = (7.5/x) + (7.5/30)

⇒ R = 30 Ω

                      A charged particle $+q$ in an electric field $\vec{E}$ experiences a force in the direction of the electric field. As a result, its kinetic energy changes. Similarly, the charged particle also experiences a force when it moves in a magnetic field $\vec{B}$. But this magnetic force is perpendicular to both velocity $\vec{v}$ of the charged particle and the magnetic field $\vec{B}$, so it cannot change the kinetic energy of the charged particle. Consider two charged particles 1 and 2 of masses $m$ and $\frac{m}{2}$ having charges $-q$ and $+2q$ respectively. They are accelerated from rest through the same potential difference $V$ and acquire kinetic energy $K_1$ and $K_2$. Then they enter in a region of uniform magnetic field $\vec{B}$ perpendicular to their velocities.
