What is the reason for constant potential difference in a battery?

Open in App

Solution

Potential difference in a battery V = E - ir
where E is the emf of the battery
i current
r - internal resistance of the cell..

If internal resistance r and current i through cell is constant, then potential difference also constant in a battery.
