alleryThe resistance inside a cell itself is called its:
ATerminal potential
BElectromotive force
CInternal resistance
DExternal resistance
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Internal resistance
1. A real cell is not a perfect source.
2. Some resistance sits inside it.
3. That is the internal resistance, written r.
4. So the answer is internal resistance.
