1 markThe diagram shows a cell of e.m.f. ε and internal resistance r. The cell is connected in series with two resistors of resistance R1 and R2. The potential difference across R1 is V1. The current in the circuit is I.
Which of the following expressions is correct?
ε = V1 + Ir
ε = IR1 + Ir
ε = IR2 + Ir
ε = V1 + IR2 + Ir
