Questions  

N identical cells, each of emf E and internal resistance r are joined in series. Out of N cells, n cells are wrongly connected i.e., their terminals are connected in reverse of that required for series connection n<N2. Let E0 be the emf of resulting battery and r0 be its internal resistance. Then

a
E0 =N−n E,  r0 = N−nr
b
E0 =N−2n E,  r0 = N−2nr
c
E0 =N−2n E,  r0 = Nr
d
E0 =N−n E,  r0 = Nr

detailed solution

Correct option is C

For every cell that is wrongly connected, the emf decreases by 2E. However, internal resistance does not depend on the direction and therefore remains same for all cells.
