Consider N = n1n2 identical cells, each of emf ε and internal resistance r. Suppose n1 cells are joined in series to form a line and n2 such lines are connected in parallel.
The combination drives a current in an external resistance R. (a) Find the current in the external resistance. (b) Assuming that n1 and n2 can be continuously varied, find the relation between n1, n2, R and r for which the current in R is maximum.
उत्तर
(a)
Given:-
Emf of one cell = E
∴ Total e.m.f. of n1 cells in one row = n1E
Total emf of one row will be equal to the net emf across all the n2 rows because of parallel connection.
Total resistance in one row = n1r
Total resistance of n2 rows in parallel \[= \frac{n_1 r}{n_2}\]
Net resistance of the circuit = R + \[\frac{n_1 r}{n_2}\]
\[\therefore \text{Current, } I = \frac{n_1 E}{R + \frac{n_1 r}{n_2}} = \frac{n_1 n_2 E}{n_2 R + n_1 r}\]
(b) From (a),
\[I = \frac{n_1 n_2 E}{n_2 R + n_1 r}\]
For I to be maximum, (n1r + n2R) should be minimum
\[\Rightarrow \left( \sqrt{n_1 r} - \sqrt{n_2 R} \right)^2 + 2\sqrt{n_1 R n_2 r} = \min\]
It is minimum when
\[\sqrt{n_1 r} = \sqrt{n_2 R}\]
\[ n_1 r = n_2 R\]
∴ I is maximum when n1r = n2R .

The earth’s surface has a negative surface charge density of 10−9 C m−2. The potential difference of 400 kV between the top of the atmosphere and the surface results (due to the low conductivity of the lower atmosphere) in a current of only 1800 A over the entire globe. If there were no mechanism of sustaining atmospheric electric field, how much time (roughly) would be required to neutralise the earth’s surface? (This never happens in practice because there is a mechanism to replenish electric charges, namely the continual thunderstorms and lightning in different parts of the globe). (Radius of earth = 6.37 × 106 m.)
