The equivalent resistance you would have to place in series with an ideal battery (which of course does not exist) of the same voltage to get the same behavior (voltage drop with load) as the real battery has. It is a mathematical modeling technique to help in circuit analysis.

BATTERY have very low resistance . you may short a battery and get virtual zero volts but lots of current therefore can be named as a current source

If you have a circuit consisting of a battery and a wire What two factors determine the amount of current in the circuit?

The voltage of the battery, and the resistance of the circuit (including the resistance of the wire and the internal resistance of the battery).


As a battery ages and is used up what will the internal resistance be?

As it ages, its Kirchhoff virtual 'internal resistance' increases. Pictured this way, the practical effect is that the open-circuit voltage of a failing cell still measures good, but the voltage quickly sags when you try to draw any current from it


What is the internal battery about in Pokemon games?

The internal battery is a battery in the game pack that stores energy to keep track of things like the passage of time when the game is not in use.


How is it possible to have a high current with a low voltage such as in a car battery if current equals Voltage divided by Reistance then shouldn't a low voltage produce a low current?

It's all relative. A battery has internal resistance. Batteries are not "ideal" voltage sources. If there is a "heavy" load on the battery (low resistance), the voltage you measure on the outside of the battery will be lower. A car battery is normally thought of as a 12 volt battery. When there is no load (disconnected) you can often measure in excess of 13 volts if it's fully charged. During normal cranking of the engine, the voltage can drop below 11 volts.


A voltmeter is connected to the terminals of a battery that has emf 12.0V and internal resistance 3.00 ohms The battery is not connected to any other external circuitry What is the vmeter's reading?

The voltmeter would read 12 volts. An ammeter connected to to battery would only read 4 amps (12 volts divided by 3 ohms =4)

Is it desirable for a battery to have a high internal resistance?

No, it is desirable for a battery to have a low internal resistance.


Actual internal resistance of 1.5 volt battery?

The value of internal resistance of 1.5 volt battery is 0.5 ohms.


Does a battery have some internal resistance?

Yes


A 19 V battery delivers 114 mA of current when connected to a 72 resistor. Determine the internal resistance of the battery.?

Internal resistance is approximately equal to 94.667


What would the current flow be if a short circuit is put across the battery's terminals?

That will depend on the internal resistance of the battery. I = E / R Where I is the current, E is the open circuit battery voltage, and R is the internal resistance of the battery.


The Storage battery of a car has an emf of 12 volt if the internal resistance of the battery is 0.4 resistance what is the maximum current that can be drawn from the battery?

You have to imagine the internal resistance as being in parallel with any load you connect. You get the maximum possible current when the load is zero. In this case, just apply Ohm's Law. That is, divide the voltage by the internal resistance.


If you have a circuit consisting of a battery and a wire What two factors determine the amount of current in the circuit?

The voltage of the battery, and the resistance of the circuit (including the resistance of the wire and the internal resistance of the battery).


What is meant by the internal resistance of a battery?

There is internal resistance in a battery because a battery is not an ideal voltage source. It may be close, but it is not ideal. As a result, analytically, there will be some series resistance, resistance which places a limit on the maximum current that the battery can provide. While no battery is ideal, most are sufficiently ideal to not require any consideration of the internal resistance. If your circuit is dependent on the internal resistance of a battery, then it is probably not well suited for that application.


If a 12v car battery has 0.04ohm internal resistance what is the battery terminal voltage when the battery delivers 40A?

011.1


How does internal resistance affect operation of a cell or battery?

It causes the battery's voltage to drop when a current is drawn from it.


What Effect does battery capacity on a circuits internal resistance?

Batteries are rated as ampere/hour any circuit that draws power from it effects it. The lower the internal resistance of the circuit the shorter the useful battery life as discharged.


Batteries have what current?

Battery maximum current is limited by the internal resistance of the battery. As the current is increased towards this maximum, you will notice the output voltage appear to shink towards zero. What this means is the voltage the battery is capable of supplying is being dropped almost completely across the internal resistance, so no real power is available to use.This internal resistance is dependent on the chemical and physical makeup of the battery.
