Parallel Combination of Cells

Two identical...

Question

Two identical cells, each of emf E, having negligible internal resistance are connected in parallel with each other across an external resistance R. what is the current through this resistance?

Open in App

Solution

As the cells are connected in parallel so the net emf of the circuit will be $E$
By Ohm's law, the current through resistance R is $I = E / R$
