Under what condition can the current passing through the resistance $R$ be increased by short-circuiting the battery of emf $E_2$? The internal resistances of the two batteries are $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively.

  • A
    $E_2r_1 > E_1 (R + r_2)$
  • B
    $E_1r_2 > E_2 (R + r_1)$
  • C
    $E_2r_2 > E_1 (R + r_2)$
  • D
    $E_1r_1 > E_2 (R + r_1)$
