a battery of emf 3 volts and internal resistance r is connected in series with a resistor of 55 ohm through an ammeter of resistance 1 ohm the ammeter reads 50 miliampere draw circuit and calculate value of r.

Solution

The circuit diagram is shown in figure 
ε = 3VI = 50 mA = 50 ×10-3 ATotal resistance of the circuitR' =55 +1+r = 56 +rAsI =εR'  50 ×10-3 A =3 56 +r 56 +r =3 50 ×10-3  =60r = 4 Ohm
