Question 28 WAEC_MODEL_QUESTIONS_VOL1 • 2019 • PHYSICS • objective

A 12 V battery of emf E = 12 V has an internal resistance r. It is connected to two external resistors R₁ and R₂ that are in parallel. The total current drawn from the battery is 3 A and the power dissipated in R₁ is twice the power dissipated in R₂. Moreover, the power dissipated in the internal resistance equals the power dissipated in R₂. Determine the values of r, R₁ and R₂ (in ohms).

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. r = 1 Ω, R₁ = 4.5 Ω, R₂ = 9 Ω
B. r = 2 Ω, R₁ = 4.5 Ω, R₂ = 9 Ω
C. r = 1 Ω, R₁ = 4.5 Ω, R₂ = 6 Ω
D. r = 1 Ω, R₁ = 6 Ω, R₂ = 9 Ω
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
r = 1 Ω, R₁ = 4.5 Ω, R₂ = 9 Ω
