In order to determine the $e.m.f.$ of a storage battery,it was connected in series with a standard cell in a certain circuit,and a current $I_1$ was obtained. When the battery is connected to the same circuit opposite to the standard cell,a current $I_2$ flows in the external circuit from the positive pole of the storage battery. What is the $e.m.f.$ $\varepsilon_1$ of the storage battery? The $e.m.f.$ of the standard cell is $\varepsilon_2$.

  • A
    $\varepsilon_1 = \frac{I_1 + I_2}{I_1 - I_2} \varepsilon_2$
  • B
    $\varepsilon_1 = \frac{I_1 + I_2}{I_2 - I_1} \varepsilon_2$
  • C
    $\varepsilon_1 = \frac{I_1 - I_2}{I_1 + I_2} \varepsilon_2$
  • D
    $\varepsilon_1 = \frac{I_2 - I_1}{I_1 + I_2} \varepsilon_2$

In the circuit shown below,the resistance and the emf source are both variable. The graph of seven readings of the voltmeter and the ammeter ($V$ and $I$,respectively) for different settings of resistance and the emf,taken at equal intervals of time $\Delta t$,are shown below by the dots connected by the curve $EFGH$. Consider the internal resistance of the battery to be negligible and the voltmeter and ammeter to be ideal devices. (Take $R_0 = \frac{V_0}{I_0}$). Then,the plot of the resistance as a function of time corresponding to the curve $EFGH$ is given by:
