      This may not be correct, but during the chemical reaction the battery may heat up which causes the resistance to increase. Temperature and resistance are related somehow.

    inside a cell,electrons and positive charges move in opposite directions,the flow of electrons can be taken flow of positive charges in opposite direction,so that way there are two cases of flow of positive charges inside the cell,why dnt we take the net current inside the cell as 2i.
    REPLY

    • @ScienceShorts
      @ScienceShorts  6 років тому

      +sachinrath123 Because whatever the current we measure in the circuit, that's only the flow of electrons. You're looking at it the wrong way round - if you really want to take into account the movement of positive changes in cell too, then they are moving at 0.5x the current.

    Why exactly does the terminal p.d across the cell increase as the current decreases/ external resistance increases in terms of actual distribution of energy and movement of electrons etc?

    • @ScienceShorts
      @ScienceShorts  7 років тому +5

      To reduce current, you need a bigger load resistance - because what you have is effectively a potential divider, more energy is lost across R, and less across r.

    • @rany615
      @rany615 5 років тому

      i think if u look at the above equation where emf is a constant, so emf - IR = Ir => emf-V = Ir and so higher lower current means higher v, because i think the R changes too but not the internal r
