\

Step 1:

\

The emf of the 10 primary cell \"image\" is 15 V.

\

The Load resistance connected across the cell \"\" is \"\".

\

The terminal potential difference \"\" is 12 V.

\

The voltage across the load is defined as \"\".

\

Voltage across the load is equal to the potential difference across the terminal of the battery.

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

The supplied current \"\".

\

Step 2:

\

Suppose that the battery with emf \"image\" and internal resistance \"image\" supplies a current \"image\" through an external load resistor \"image\", then the potential difference across the battery is \"\" .

\

Substitute \"\", \"\" and \"\" in \"\".

\

\"\"

\

The overall internal resistance is \"\". \ \

\

Internal resistance per cell is \"\".

\

Step 3:

\

Power in the external circuit :

\

Power can be calculated using the relation : \"\" .

\

Where \"\" is emf of the battery, \ \

\

          \"\" is current through the circuit,

\

\"\"

\

Therefore, the power in the external circuit is 6 W.

\

Solution:

\

The supplied current \"\".

\

Internal resistance per cell is \"\".

\

the power in the external circuit is 6 W.
