An auto mechanic needs to determine the emf and internal resistance of an old battery. He performs two measurements: in
the first, he applies a voltmeter to the battery's terminals and reads 11.5 V; in the second, he applies an ammeter to the
terminals and reads 15.5 A.
What are the battery's emf E and internal resistance r?
E =
V
r =
Ω
You want to determine the resistance value per meter for a very long wire. In the absence of an ohmmeter, you have at your disposal a battery, a voltmeter and an ammeter. First, you plug the voltmeter into the battery terminals and measure 10.7V. Then you cut a piece of the 20m wire and connect it to the battery, along with the ammeter in series. The reading on the ammeter is 6.00A. Then you cut a 40m piece of wire and connect it in the same way to the battery, with the ammeter in series. The reading is now 3.50A. You may think the voltmeter and ammeter are ideal, but the battery is not. What is the resistance value of 1 meter of wire?
