\(18\) cells each having same emf are connected in series with some cells being wrongly connected. This arrangement of battery is connected in series with an ammeter and two identical cells which are in series. Current of \(3~\text{A}\) is drawn when cells and battery support each other and current of \(2~\text{A}\) is drawn when cells and battery oppose each other. The number of wrongly connected cells are:
1. \(1\)
2. \(2\)
3. \(3\)
4. \(4\)

Two batteries of emf ε1 and ε2 (ε2>ε1) and internal resistances r1 and r2 respectively are connected in parallel as shown in the figure.

         

1. The equivalent emf εeq of the two cells is between ε1 and ε2. i.e, ε1<εeq<ε2
2. The equivalent emf εeq is smaller than ε1
3. The εeq is given by εeq=ε1+ε2 always
4. εeq is independent of internal resistances r1 and r2

Two cells having emfs \(3\) V and \(2\) V are connected in parallel and they give an emf of \(0.5\) V in the same sense as \(3\)\(-\) cell. The internal resistances of the cells are \(r_1\) and \(r_2\) respectively. If one cell is reversed, their combined emf becomes \(2.5\) V. The ratio of their internal resistances \(\Big(\dfrac{r_1}{r_2}\Big) \) is:
1. \(1\)
2. \(\dfrac12\)
3. \(\dfrac21\)
4. \(\sqrt2\)

\(n\) identical cells each of emf \(E\) and internal resistance \(r\) are connected in series. An external resistance \(R\) is connected in series to this combination to form a loop. The current through \(R\) is:
1. \(\dfrac{n E}{R+r}\) 2. \(\dfrac{n E}{n R+r}\)
3. \( \dfrac{n E}{R+n r}\) 4. \(\dfrac{E}{R+n r}\)
