A battery of internal resistance 2   Ω is connected to a variabte resistor whose value can vary from 4   Ω  to   10   Ω. The resistance is initially set at 4   Ω.  If the resistance is now increased, then

a
power consumed by it will decrease
b
power consumed by it will increase
c
power consumed by it may increase or may decrease
d
power consumed by it will first increase then decrease

detailed solution

Correct option is A

P=I2R=VR2=ε2R+r2Rε is constant and (R + r) increases rapidly, then P ↓.
