Answer:
7 volts
Explanation:
Applying,
E = IR+Ir……………. Equation 1
Where E = electromotive force of the cell, I = current. R = External resistance, r = internal resistance.
From the question,
Given: I = 2 amperes, R = 3 ohm, r = 0.5 ohm
Substitute these values into equation 1
E = (2×3)+(2×0.5)
E = 6+1
E = 7 volts
