Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
B

Given: A student measures the terminal potential difference of a cell ( of emf and internal resistance ) as a function of the current ( ) flowing through it.
To find the slope and intercept of the graph between and I
Solution:
The general equation of in cell:

Compare it with standard equation of the line:

Since graph of student is vs
is and is
Therefore, is intercept and is slope
