In an electric circuit shown in the figure, the external resistance R is variable. It is found that same power is developed in external resistance R if its value is either 5  Ω  or  20  Ω.  With this information find the internal resistance (r) of the voltage source.

a
20  Ω
b
8  Ω
c
103  Ω
d
10  Ω

detailed solution

Correct option is D

I=   ER+r,  P=I2R=E2RR+r2Now  P1=P2 ⇒  E255+r2 =  E22020+r2 ⇒ r=10 Ω
